    My grandson did exactly this. For about a month every answer was a firm no while he took the thing anyway. Then one morning the nod arrived and he used that for everything instead, including 'shall we have a bath'. I found the no phase more entertaining.

    Six months here and her only form of communication is grabbing my glasses. I'd take a head shake.

    Ours did the reverse, an enthusiastic nod for everything, including 'shall we cut your nails'. She is ten now and her answer to everything is 'maybe'.
