you know....once when I was younger I asked my mother why I had to do something....she went thru the explanation, to which I listened, told her I didnt agree with her reasoning (sounded good at the time) and waltzed off without doing what I'd been told to do.
Only one more time in my life did I ask why when instructed to do something (seems the 2 month grounding I got didnt really "take" the first time) that time I was told because she said so and grounded for 3 months.
As a mother now, what I dont understand is why cant someone just do what they are asked without having to have a reason for it.
I understand in the military you dont ask your superior office why he gave you an order to do something....why shouldnt a parent have the same respect and consideration?
