Parenting Fail

Last Friday at co-op, Josie was presented with a simple question. 
"What would you do with a million dollars?"

Her answer: 
"I would sell it."

"Sell it?"

"Get rid of it. Give it away."

"Why?"

"Because money changes people. It can make them selfish.  They get greedy and don't give it to the poor."

I was beaming. What an insightful answer. I was so proud of her and felt as though we were succeeding as parents. This is the affirmation we've been waiting for. 

So tonight we asked her about it. Where she learned it...

Her answer: 
"Crash and Bernstein."

I'm out.
