Yes it is. I asked Elin as we were eating our bagel sandwiches if there would ever come a time when she would refuse ice cream. She, of course, was certain she'd never say no. After lunch, we headed over to
Cold Stone Ice Cream a few stores down. Elin ordered a kids' size cup with Cotton Candy and Vanilla flavors. The kids' size was a surprise, because it would shame even adults. Luckily, this was just the right size to put the hypothesis above to the test. Elin finished half of the ice cream and pushed the cup towards me in defeat. Even an hour later she said, "Pappa, ask me if I want ice cream". She, of course, refused it.
Even a kid can say no to ice cream under the right circumstance.
