If you listen to almost ANY child,
at any school, they will begin to tell you everything, for as long as you will listen.


Are you old enough to remember the TV show, I think with Art Linkletter, "Kids Say the Dardnest Things"?

Basically, he each week he gathered a bunch of kids, I would guess usually about 4 to 10, and let them talk. I assume it was highly edited, because I'm sure lots of it would have been totally boring, warm-up, etc. But some of it was an absolute riot. One of his favorite questions was "what did your mommy tell you not to talk about on the show?" Talk about some red faces!

I could never understant, though, why parents would ever let their kids go on the show. Did the LIKE their kids saying "Mommy told me not to talk about the time I went in their bedroom and they were doing this funny thing where . . ."
