Difference between take it easy, take your time, and easy does it?
Hi,
Can you look at the below contexts and tell me which idiom should be used?
1) My son accidentally tipped over the vase and knocked it off the table.
Should I use "Take it easy"?
2) My son ate very fast and spilled some food.
Is "Take your time" better?
3) He tried to put on his coat by himself, but spent too much time on it. He became impatient.
Is "Easy does it" better? How about "Take your time"?
4) Hearing someone knock on the door, my son rushed toward the door, and fell suddenly.
Should I use "take it easy"?
So what are their differences concerning the contexts?
Thanks very much.
