I can't understand how such an obviously stupid approach to rasing kids even got off the ground to the point of general awareness. Any intelligent adult should be able to see how learning to take a "no" is an essential part of growing up. Same with dealing with negative emotions in general, which I understand the whole "never say no" thing is trying to avoid.

My daughter was taught how to take a no at a young age. It was a bit rough the first few times, but she quickly learned to take them in stride.
