to your point

Phrase used to contradict another person's ideas, while making it feel like you have agreed with them.

Her: I don't think we should see each other anymore. You're just not there for me emotionally and I need more than that.

You: To your point, I think we should limit our relationship to strictly sexual, and I look forward to that. I’m glad we agree on this.

Can also be used in the 3rd person.

Jim: Peyton Manning rules.

You: I’m with Jim on this one. And to Jim’s point, Tom Brady is the best QB in the NFL.

Stop trying to make your point

This has nothing to do with asking.

Hym "So stop trying to make your point at me. I'm not going to and don't have to let you hold this over my head in exchange for compliance and if it's worth less than your kids life you can't possibly make an exchange that would benefit me enough to justify allowing you to control how I problem solve. You're being obtuse about asking for thing and I'm not going to indulge you. You want me to do something else and this isn't about what you want and I'm not going to let you turn this into 'Hym does what I want and gets rewarded or Hym does what Hym wants and gets punished.' And THAT is what you are trying to turn this into."
