Questionable

Quote By Poet "The word Why makes the world go round." When we first start to speak, we first learn to say three words. Mommy~daddy and no, that was not for me. My first word was very questionable, since it was why. I asked and wanted to know about why, why was very important to me as a toddler and child. Guess some things never change, I still use the questionable word why all the time.

Children in general are very curious.... ! So they keep on asking 'Why'. Congratulations on your win dear Paula.

'Why' can drive an adult crazy when it is the response by a child to everything said. There is also some benefit in problem solving with 5Y. Congratulations on your win! :)
