A three-year-old had been told several times to get ready for bed. The last time his mom told him, she was every insistent. His response was, "Yes, Sir!" Since he was talking to his mother, it was not expected of him to call her "Sir".
"You would say, 'Yes Sir,' to a man, I am a lady, and you would say 'Yes Ma'am,' to a lady," Mom said.
To quiz him on his lesson, she then asked him, "What would you say to Daddy?"
