This kid's glib response re: his mother's not thinking her actions through clearly...is not a kid's response.
Just a suggestion...but someone else (NOT A CHILD) is speaking!
Have seen enough evidence of possession (anecdotal and otherwise) to recognize the warning signs!
I thought of that when I read that same comment from the boy. Just a frightening situation for the parents and other kids.
I thought the same thing. That response was not that of a child.
It could be a parrot of something the parent or others have said.
