Negotiation

Little Fox has begun negotiating with us. Here's an example from a few minutes ago:

Little Fox: Can I go play xbox?
Me: Nope. You know the rule. You've had your hour already.
LF: If you let me play...
Me: Nope.
LF: No Mommy,  I didn't finish! If you let me play for ONE MORE HOUR, I'll take you to McDonald's and let you have a hamburger.
Me: Tempting. But no.

A few weeks ago, he said that if I let him play his game, he'd "let me" play outside with him.
