DS5.5 never went through asking why when he was younger (when all the other kids around were asking why why why). He always asked "how does it work?" "how is it made?" and many other specific questions. But never simple "why". He goes on asking questions non stop all day but they are always to the point where he's looking for more of a technical answer.
Yes-- and DD has always been my little skeptic-- she does NOT accept answers that don't make sense, and truth-tests out loud by asking follow-up questions. She sometimes asks for OPINIONS-- and is relentless with others until they 'confess,' coming at things from all different angles until the person cracks...
Nobody expects {DD}, basically.
