It’s the weekend and you may be spending some more time with your young children than during the week.  Their questions are sometimes amazing and sometimes never ending!

GREG MELVILLE, an author for Men’s Health says “Being a dad means being the answer man.”

In this recent article, He’s provided some great, quick responses that should satisfy your kid’s curiosity – such as “What does God look like?” and “Who put that baby in Mom’s belly?”

You can also use some of these techniques in your other personal relationships, like when someone asks you a difficult question, pause for a moment and ask them “Well what do you think?”
