    Oof, this is definitely a:

    Every lie incurs a debt to the truth

    Sort of thing. It’s not going to be fun when your child understands that there is no school on weekends, you’ll lose a lot of trust overnight with this.

      Good, kids need to stop believing every bullshit they hear. Critical thinking is in short supply these days.

      when your child understands that there is no school on weekends

      “I did not lie to you, we just all as parents agreeded to make the same offering to our children”.

      (it’s not even half lying; setting agreements as adults is what bulding a society is about)
