Kid, very suddenly and long after bedtime:
“What if I murder a doctor & then have no reason not to plead guilty & I spend the rest of my life in jail & I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in jail. So maybe always warn me before taking me to the doctor?”
Kid: “I’ve already done things doctors don’t like, and they don’t like being killed!”
Adult, through laughter: “You’re stressed about this?”
Kid: “Well, less so now that you’ve laughed at me!”
