      A few years ago working traffic control at a football game a funny thing   
   happened.   
     It was early in the season and a warm day.   
     A ice cream truck announced its arrival with the music playing and all.   
     This woman was talking to another when her little girl came up wanting   
   her to buy her an ice cream.  The mother said "Honey, don't interrupt while   
   I'm talking" and continued the conversation.   
     Once the truck was gone she turned to her daughter, who was still saying   
   excitedly, "Mommy! Mommy" and asked sweetly "what do you want honey?" with   
   the little girl disappointed saying "nothing" and walking away.   
     I got a laugh of the way that was handled.  No arguing, no giving in,   
   etc.  It was if she didn't know what the kid wanted.
