Headline: My toddler speaks for himself. "NO!"

As a mother of four, I have learned that it is inevitable all children learn to think and speak for themselves. I remember being anxious to hear my first child's words, but with my fourth, I was hoping he would wait to start talking when he was capable of making rational decisions. Unfortunately, that wish will not come true. He has mastered "No" and now uses it every chance he gets.
