    Children seem to be able to get whatever they want from parents & grandparents who are family. Kids already know what are parents' limits and who to go to. There are two skills we can learn from children are never giving up and being emtional.

  • To Annie,

    1. Regrettably, what we may learn from children is probably not what you wrote in your note.

    2. For negotiation, childer are usually not afraid to take "no" from their parents -- they have been used to it.

    3. They know the decision-making process and the ultimate decision-maker in their family.

    4. Additionally, they know how to make the most use of their "charm," "loveliness"...to win the favorable feeling of their opponents.

  • To Nicky,

    1. It's very good experience to share with us.

    2. As the "power" theories we talked about in class, your step 1, 2 even 3 are all the resorts to shape your power before negotiating with your opponents on something you want from them.

    3. Some advices for you:
    a. This is Nicky Wen,student number: 2092200178.
    b. After I thought over the question, the following is my own experience.
    c. When I was a little girl, I always used the three steps to persuade my parents to give me money or something that I really wanted to have.

    WATCH THE TENSE YOU USE IN YOUR WRITING!!!

  • To 許:
    There are some grammartical glitches for your:
    "...when is best time to ask the thing which they want to get. They don’t afarid their parents refuse them because they still have chances to let their parents to say yes."

    They should have been put as:
    1. ...the best time to ask for the thing that they want to get.
    2. They are not afaid that their parents would refuse them...
    3. ...to let their parents say "yes."
