I found out my Mom instituted a rule to deal with my grouchy Dad...
He's not allowed to say "Yes" or "No" to a question without thinking about it for ten seconds.... He's prone to just spouting "No" to everything.

Good idea I think

3. My family has a different rule.
After two questions no more may be asked unless the questioned grants permission

4. mrs. unblock has a different rule also
apparently, she's allowed to ask the identical question as many times as necessary until she gets the answer she's looking for.

life is much easier since i learned this rule.
