Are you thinking about, what could be the better ways to answer ‘Why’ questions?

Those genius kids always wonder and ask ‘But, Why?’ question most of the time.
And that’s not just kids, even adults constantly asking, ‘Why (are you doing this or that)?’
They ask because they’re either confused by your method or doubt what you do.
Also, they don’t believe it. And, they’ve to know about it.
But, when you want to avoid this question, handle it smartly.
How To Respond To “Why” Question?

Check if they’re interested to learn about something you do.
Or, they just want to prove you’re different from normal.
2. “I’ve no time to explain everything. Either do something or don’t ask anything.”
It’s annoying when you ask for someone’s help and instead of providing support, they keep asking ‘why’ questions on repeat.
You’ve to do something on time, but they make it even harder for you.
3. “To be honest, I don’t know. But when I know, I’ll first inform you.”
When you don’t want to answer ‘why’ from someone, saying ‘I don’t know’ will save you.
You can also convince them that they’ll have an answer if you know it.
Because habitually, they might further ask ‘why you don’t know’.
4. “You will know it when you fully grow up like your sister.”
Your kid is curious about some topic that he or she is too young for.
You’re not sure whether you say them or not, but you don’t want their curiosity to die.

5. “Because you do nothing important. So, I have to do it all.”

You’ve no option but to be sarcastic and give this honest answer.
6. “I could explain this a hundred times, but you still won’t ever understand me. “

They just have to talk about something.
You already know they don’t want to learn, but it’s just for gossiping.
7. “Please don’t ask why. Accept it, because I said it.”
This one is not the perfect answer to every case.
But when someone asks too many questions, and you’ve no time to explain, this response helps.
Saying ‘Because I said so‘ sounds a bit proudy.
So be careful with that.
8. “Maybe because someone has to earn money for the family.”
Your adult child who feels ashamed of the work you do, keeps asking why you’re doing this work.
To make it clear to them, you have to respond savagely.
Hope, they will stop asking you for money and start working then after.

You don’t want to hear any such question from them.
So you must give this ultimate response to their ‘why’ question for the final time.
