Parents of six year olds, illuminate me. Why does Frost suddenly greet my every announcement with "NO."
Me: Frost, we are going out in a few minutes to buy a zester.
Frost [from bedroom]: NO
I shrug at Josh as if to say "see what I put up with all day"
Josh: I think he said "Oh"
Me [voice raised as I call to bedroom]: Pardon, what did you say Frost?
Frost: NO
Josh: He did that to me last night too. I said 'time to clean teeth' and he said "NO"
In the past he would have asked what a zester was. Why I wanted one. If he could get candy. Now its just a flat NO. Silence.
I need to check my parenting books between Wren's whines and thuds and fallings over.
