    My son is also 4 and he's the one i describe as "the negotiator." An example below:

    Me: Nick, it's time for bed.

    Nick: No, no, no, dad. Um, how about you and mom and Rose go to bed and I watch potaymon (Pokemon)? How about that?

    I get the same thing from my 5 year old....yesterday morning (before the Mall debacle) he ate what he referred to as 2nd breakfast and then tried to convince me he still needed to have his morning snack because the "snack" he just had was really just part of the breakfast he'd finished an hour prior.

    That's awesome. You have to love the enthusiastic attempt to get what he wants.

    Tony, you are correct "Nursemaid's Elbow" and I think you might be right about learning to treat this myself. My daughter is 2 and already causing me much gray hair. She's my climber, my jumper and just all around fearless and crazy child.
    Got a 3 year old granddaughter you can borrow she and your daughter are kindred spiritsthe whole local E.R. staff knows her by name

    Will also loan her to Green Dragon she would make an grand instrutor in "Advanced Negotiation"
