[quote=jsmith123][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the heck? Why are you making them decide? Just decide without asking and tell them that’s what you’re doing or where you’re going. This reminds me of how my sister used to ask her three or four year old, “what do you want to eat for dinner?” I remember my niece pointing to a bottle of syrup in the refrigerator. My sister looked at me with an exasperated expression like can you believe she wants her for dinner? I wanted to be like, don’t ask your three-year-old what she wants for dinner. Just give it to her.[/quote] OP here. That's not what I ask them. It's not that broad. Instead of “what do you want to eat for dinner?” I ask- Would you like broccoli or green beans? [/quote] Just serve dinner. It's still a question. Which means it's still something that allows them to pick the opposite and pout when they don't get what they want.[/quote]
