They share personal experiences and examples of how this strategy manifests, from setting boundaries with children to negotiating deals. While acknowledging its potential for manipulation, they emphasize that recognizing the dynamic can be a valuable connection point in conversations and offer tips on how to use the expression in everyday English.
