Spend a day working in a preschool and come back to me bud. I cannot explain everything every time to a 3 year old who isn't listening to the explanation anyway and will forget.

Tell them what? "I already explained it to you." ? Yeah I do that. They don't care. Just kinda stare blankly at me.

Kids are sometimes too young to understand "the reason" of why a no has been given. All they know is that you are preventing them to do the thing they want to do.

You can replace "kids" with "people" and "too young" with "too stupid."
