Ask him/her about what happened. Do not judge. Do not label.
When children say 𝐍𝐎 it does not mean that they are insulting you or someone else. There may be a reason behind it. Figure that out by being compassionate and patient.
If you will not respect the child's NO, he/she will never be able to raise his/her voice in front of strangers or elders of the family, if needed.

And if your child is saying #𝐍𝐎 just stop at that point.
