Today Marco, 4, and Mila, 5, were in the block room; Marco was building a structure, and needed assistance.
Marco: Mila, will you help me build my building?
Mila: I don't want to.
Marco: Mila, if you help me, I'll give you twenty-two dollars.
Mila pauses.
Marco: I'll give it to you when I'm a big kid, when I'm big enough to have money.
Mila: No, I don't think so. (She starts to walk out of the room)
Marco, getting extremely frustrated and desperate, screaming after Mila:
Pleeeease, my mom will give you the money!!!
He notices the next best thing to no help, which is me.
Marco: Alex, will you help me?
Me: You gonna give me twenty-two dollars?
Marco, thinking about his answer: I'll give you one dollar.
