Hao: Mommy, gurt, gurt *pointing at the fridge, hinting to me he wants to eat the yogurt*
Me: (Looking at Hao) Say "Please".
No respond from Hao.
Me: Say "Please".
Still no respond from Hao.
Me: Say "Please" first. Mama will give.
Hao: Plead.
I open the fridge and pass him a yogurt.
Me: Say "Thank you".
Hao: Kyu.-------------------------------------------------------
Yesterday afternoon, Lynn wanted to eat raisins.
Lynn: Mama I want to eat raisins. Can I have some raisins please?
Me: OK.
Lynn: Mama I want this green spoon and this white spoon is for Didi. (Whatever food that she is asking, she will always get some for Hao.)
Me: OK.
Scoop one spoon of the raisins for Lynn and another spoon for Hao.
I was feeling a little hungry too. So I asked them to share some of the raisins with me.
Me: Lynn, can give mama one raisin?
Lynn passed me one raisin.Me: Hao, can give mama one raisin?
Hao: No! (Taking one for himself.)Lynn passed me another raisin.
Me: Hao, share share? Give mama one raisin?
Hao: No! (Continue eating by himself.)
Lynn passed me another raisin.
Me: Hao, just give mama one raisin, can?
Hao: No! (Munching his raisins.)
Lynn passed me another raisin.
Me: Aww... why don't you want to share with mama?
Hao: No!
Lynn passed me another raisin.
Hao: (Take a look at me) "Plead".
Me: Oh, you want mama to say please? Hao, can you please give mama one raisin?
Hao passed me one raisin finally.Me: Thank you! :D
Erm, I did not say "No" when the kids are not saying "Please". So this one definitely not from me. Hehehe.
Anyway, now Hao will automatically offer me the raisin simply because he saw Lynn always do this to me! So it's really important to get Lynn to show the good example. :)

Kiahahaha! Monkey see monkey do, Lynn plays an important role model to his 'didi'! She is such a thoughtful 'jie jie'. Good job to Hao too, by now he must be saying pretty well with 'please' and 'Thank you!'
