There is nothing wrong with your question hon.

A specific example of a normal no responce question would however really help.

Like: "Are you going to have my supper ready for me tomarrow night when I get home from work girl?" (he may know or not know that you have a busy day between school and work the next day and its simpley not possible becuase he will be home before you)

Responce: "Regretabely Master, your girl must work after school and will not be able to get home in time; would it be possible for her to prepare a meal for Master tonight that he could heat up when he gets home that will please him?"

Or some such variation may work in most cases.
