Can we negotiate on that?

Little bear didn't want to go to nursery. He mumbled and grumbled and decided that the sun was too bright to go outside. He reluctantly agreed to go if he was wearing his fireman's helmet, but not for long.
Do you want to stay for milk and biscuits? I asked. He reluctantly agreed. Then I asked whether he wanted to stay for tea. He mumbled a bit and decided he wanted to stay for tea. Then he thought for a moment and decided he wanted to stay 'a little, little bit longer than tea'.

When we got there he couldn't leave me fast enough to play with his friends. I was very much put in my place.
