Kids sometimes know how to really boil down complicated concepts into their simplest terms. Often it's hilarious but also spot on

Not my kid, but a child I was sitting near on the bus turned to his mom, and told her "Ms. Johnson taught us about multiplication today." She asks him what exactly he learned, and he replies "That I don't want to do math."
I felt that. The other students on the bus felt that. The entire world felt that.
When my daughter was about 4, her sister was 6 and her younger brother 2. That afternoon I was done. Screaming, fighting, crying… you get the idea. I said that they were going to drive me to drink. My 4 year old then informed that wasn’t possible because she wasn’t old enough to drive.
I had to share this as it cracked me up this morning. For background, we are not a religious family, and we're not Christians. We were given a batch of Easter cookies which come in shapes like bunnies and eggs, but also crosses. My 7 year old said "what's this?" And my wife says, it's a sword. My 5 year old said "no it's a cross". My wife was surprised she knew what a cross was, and so asked her, "what is a cross?" To which she responds, "you know, it's like a wooden thing, that you put people on."
Yep, it's a wooden thing that you put people on. It's 16 hours later and I'm still chuckling about it.
