More Detail:
Allison and Carlos used to say yes to everything: sky diving, traveling the world, and much more. When they got married and started having children, things changed. They find themselves saying no to their children all the time. In fact, Allison is accused of being a very tough mother who says no to almost everything.
Even though she tries to tell them she was fun at one time, her children Katie, Ellie and Nando don’t believe it. When the parents go to the student teacher day at school, a teacher suggests they have a Yes Day, a day where the children get to pick the activity and the parents have to say yes, with, however, some guidelines. Carlos and Allison think this is a fun idea. When they present the idea to their children, Katie, their teenager, doesn’t believe they’ll be able to do it. Allison tells Katie she will be able to go to a concert festival by herself if Allison isn’t able to say yes the entire day. This is a chance to have a family day without any distractions.
Will Allison be able to enjoy the day with her children and will Carlos take the time off from work?
