To pester... is an art form

So. Mr Smeddley wants a car. And he wants it now. I get to hear all about the 2010 Ford Fusion on a daily basis. It is the perfect car. It's reasonably (HA!) priced. He deserves it. Blah blah blah car blah car.

No, really. Imagine a two-year old begging for a toy, and you get the picture.

Buying it now would seriously stress me out, because it's a lot of money. Sure, we could pull it off, but it would be tighter than it's been in a long time. Listening to him beg for six months will also seriously stress me out, because I'll feel guilty that I'm depriving him of something he wants. So an ulcer is probably in my future no matter what, but I ask you, oh wise internet, what should I do?
