In this time of change many people believe that the word “No”

is, shall we say, a less than positive word, and shouldn’t be

used with children. Everything should be positive.

It is becoming a “Yes” world but maybe

“No” still has its place.

Sophia was excited. She was now in the 2nd

grade and it was her first day of school.

As she finished her breakfast, she looked out

of the window and saw all her friends waiting

for the bus.

“Mommy, can I ride the bus?” she asked.

“Yes,” mommy said.

Sophia was even more excited.

She jumped up from the table to go to the bus stop.

Then her Mommy said, “Yes, you can ride the bus next

week but I’ll walk with you to school for the first week.”

Sophia was sad and confused. She thought her Mommy

said she could ride the bus but then kind of changed

the answer.
