[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What 7 year old is that curious about what an adult does?[/quote] Kids are curious. They ask questions and (some) careers are interesting. The brother said he was exhausted. A reasonable follow-up question is "why." Surely you're met children whose favorite word is "why." What on earth is brother exhausted from? Nothing. That's why the child probed further. He was being gaslighted by a liar. [/quote] Nothing? Does it seem glaringly obvious that there is some depression or other health issue at play? Is it really that hard to connect the dots? And letting a nosy kid ask why? why? why? Again and again is in really bad taste. OP may secretly agree with her kid but that doesn't make it ok to be rude and obnoxious. People defending this behavior are the same people who probably flip out if their parents ask them if/when they will have grandchildren. Or get married. Or do anything else in life.[/quote]
