Can we keep him?

Two days ago I visited a store on the UWS in New York...I was complimented by the shop owner that I told my kids "no".  She said she rarely sees parents telling kids no...

Ain't that weird I thought. Knowing my kids, if I'd never say no, things would get radically chaotic pretty soon....

I have vivid memories of a tantrum 'cause we said "no" to a baby elephant, even though the kids promised he would sleep in the bath tub.
