I agree though I'd say sorry no thanks you, I don't let anyone walk my dog.
My children walk our dogs and this comes up also only certain friends of theirs can help and even though many of them ohhhh and ah and want to help you just tell them no thank you. |

It is also "lack of manners" imo for the children to keep asking or to be allowed to keep asking by parents. think of what they learn by your response. It bugs me when a child (or adult) thinks if they keep asking the answer will be different. I tell my students that, I say why would I answer you differently now than an hour past? |
Yeah I hate that too. Why do they expect a different answer when the question is the same? Bc they are counting on wearing you down with being annoying. Once I had a guy trying to talk me down on a price, and I was already giving him a really good price. Not only was he being annoying, but telling me, "sorry to be so annoying"

Yeah right. He kept asking for a lower and lower price and not letting up. I finally said if you say one more word the price is going up.

He shut up.
