This is Sallie. Sallie says "Hi"...

Sallie is a dog. She is an Italian Greyhound who likes to army crawl on her belly
and chase her twin sister, Sophie. Sallie speaks Italian, English, and Puppigese.

Sallie recently received an email from a teenager who wants to know how to
convince his parent to be "on his side":

Sallie's Reply:

"Helping Your Parent Learn to Say 'Yes!'"

It is very simple to do. The key questions to ask are:
           
               "Is this a good time?"
               "What do you need from me?"

These are followed by the crucial statements, which are:
               
               "After I am finished, I want to ask you for something."
               "In order for me to ask this question, I need to give you these pieces   
                  of information... (who, what, when, where, how and why)."

Good Luck!
