Big Trouble!

This is the conversation that is occuring between Noah and myself, right now:

Noah: Can I play GameCube?
Me: No. Not right now.
Noah: But I have to.
Me: You play too much. Let's play with your Magnetix instead. Or your cars.
Noah. No. I have to play the GameCube game. It has Star Wars.
Me: I really don't want you to play video games this morning.
Noah: (starting to whine) You have to let me play the GameCube game.
Me: Why do I have to let you?
Noah: Because I won't be your friend.
Me: Really? I'll try to be okay with that.
Noah: (increased whining) But you have to let me play or I will get in trouble.
Me: How are you going to get in trouble?
Noah: I will get in big trouble if you don't let me play.
Me: Who are you going to get in trouble with?
Noah: You HAVE to let me. I will get in BIG trouble. (as he wanders into the other room and is getting ready to start the game)
Me: Noah! Don't turn that game on.
Noah: But I NEED to play it right now! I have to stay right here and I need to play the GameCube game frickin' bad. (thanks to Adam for teaching him "frickin'")
Me: Noah! Don't you do it.
Noah: (his whining just turned to anger) I HAVE TO PLAY THE GAMECUBE GAME OR THAT'S NOT VERY NICE!

The conversation just ended abruptly because I clearly have to physically intervene.

This is just practice for later.

I'm sensing the debate team in his future.
