Why? The dreaded word.....

TJ : Mummy where are we going today
Me: We are not going anywhere
TJ : Why?
Me : Because its Saturday
TJ : Why
Me : School is closed today
TJ : Why
Me : Its a weekend
TJ : Why?
Me : No why, we are just not going anywhere
TJ : So we are going to school

Understand where this is going? Basically, this conversation continued until  I stopped responding.
Words like 'why' must be forbidden
Words like why should be treated like swear words, and everytime a child says them they must put a coin in the jar! It would make life easier for parents.
