7 genius comebacks for when your toddler asks why
A toddler?s curiosity is an amazing, wonderful thing?.that juuuuust might drive you clinically insane as you spiral down into a Q&A rabbit hole.
You know the drill: Your toddler asks you a question, and you?re delighted. How adorable and smart! You give (what you think is) a good, informative answer?which is followed by, “Why"”
You smile. Oh, this kid sure is something! You have to admit, you?re fascinated by your toddler?s fascination. So you answer?and get another why.
Um, OK. You take a breath and answer the third follow-up question. Another why.
Now it?s getting exasperating. But you answer again, only to get another why. And another and another and another.
This would be OK if you didn?t need to get to work or you didn?t want dirty looks at church or, for Pete?s sake, you just wanted two seconds of peace and quiet! Does that sound dramatic" Not if you have a toddler with the tenacity of the Terminator.
But you?ll be happy to know that the ?why? phase doesn’t last forever, and our kids aren?t purposely pushing our buttons. Instead, they?re really taking their next big developmental leap.
