Lies We Tell Our Kids and Risky Stuff

S1 E3: We all lie to our children, that’s a given. Most of the lies are harmless, but since the PC brigade took over, some of them have become downright damaging. To help us examine the effect of these lies, Nigel consults an authority on children - Walnut the Clown, and in the process finds out where the most dangerous children’s parties are. Speaking of danger; we’ll also look at the modern tendency to remove any form of risk from children’s lives, and then visit a school where they actively encourage risk. Also, if you tell your kids they’ll lose an eye if they play with sticks you may just want to pay particularly close attention to this episode.
