[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Preschool teachers do it a lot. Personally, I think it's dumb because it's not how we really talk. I think the idea is to sound less rude and to encourage the kud to copy and be polite, rather than shouting no all the time (which the toddler will do anyway). I don't do it, but I see the logic. Just seems like an irritating phrasing to me.[/quote] Op here- this is what confuses me- it's not how we talk so it just didn't make sense to me but now I understand that it's just a polite way of saying no. Just seems unnatural to say no thank you when my DD throws a ball at my face as if I had rhe option to opt out of getting hit in the face[/quote]
