01 Definition
Asking permission is an expression of asking
someone for permission to do or do something.
For example, when you are at home and want to
ask your mother's permission to go to school, or
play at a friend's house.

However, not all asking of permissions actions

can be approved by other people. There are
those who agree (giving permissions), and there
are those who refuse (refusing permissions).

Rejection can occur based on their

consideration of one or two things that cannot
be avoided.
