I honestly don't remember there being any options.. If there were, we were given two choices. Would you like Pizza, or Spagetti for dinner?
I think I kind of do both... Or maybe I am doing the same thing...
I usually say, Son, put your shoes away please. I guess I don't really need the "please".. But it still sounds like a command to me.
But if I said Son, will you put away your shoes please? I would consider than a choice..
What say you all?
