When Someone Says "We'll See"
I asked to do something fun, and a grown-up said "we'll see.". Read it together, at your pace. Every page is written in your child's voice.
1. Sometimes I ask, "Can we go to the park?" A grown-up says, "We'll see."
2. "We'll see" is a foggy answer. It is not yes or no. It means the answer is not decided yet.
3. Why do grown-ups say "we'll see"?
What could "we'll see" mean? They do not know the plan yet. They want to say yes but are not sure they can. They are thinking about it. We do not have enough information to know. 💡 There can be many reasons for "we'll see." We cannot know without more information. I can ask what the plan depends on, or wait and see together.
4. Not knowing can feel wobbly. I can hold the wobble. I can say, "Okay. Please tell me when you know."
5. I can practice a checking question.
6. Every "we'll see" turns into a real answer eventually. And whatever it is, I will know what to do.
