I really got off on this article from Slate magazine. This one is something I am going to have to work at:
"9. Say “no” only when it really matters. Wear a bright red shirt with bright orange shorts? Sure. Put water in the toy tea set? OK. Sleep with your head at the foot of the bed? Fine. Samuel Johnson said, “All severity that does not tend to increase good, or prevent evil, is idle.”
My family was BIG on "No". My Grandma Lil had it as a Tattoo... Not really but she could have. Lot's of no and lots of inconsistency. With Max, I will make mistakes, because that is life. I hope to avoid that.
