Give It Up

Today's Word:

acquiesce: (verb) submit or comply silently or without protest; agree; consent [ak-wee-ess]

I'm having trouble thinking of examples to add... hmm... Oh! When my children want a toy or a treat, they will whine or throw fits (sometimes). They know instinctively with whom this method is most effective. Grandma will almost certainly acquiesce if she encounters the least bit of resistance.
