QotD: I'm Going Crazy

What word or phrase drives you absolutely nuts?
submitted by, revolt

Growing up, I never liked when my parent's would say "because I told you so". That was never good enough for me. As an early childhood educator now, I work extra hard to give real reasons for why children should do things. When I hopefully become a parent some day, I hope to never use that statement when enforcing a rule or consequence for my children. As a child, I wanted a real reason, and I believe that most all children want a real understandable and rational reason for why parents or adults want them to do things. There is are always ways to explain things to children so that they will understand. "Because I said so" just never cut it for me, and it probably never will.
