A comment on Telling our children the truth: response to Paul Graham.
"Dad, why did you and mum get a divorce?"
"The thing is Paul, it was all your fault"
There's a whole series of these sketches with similar themes. Telling the truth in all instances to kids is idiotic :)
One of my other favorites that I can't find on youtube/script:
"Dad, why don't I have many friends?"
"The thing is Paul, you're just not that interesting. I sometimes struggle to stay awake when talking to you myself." etc etc
