Kids are Sociopaths was created by OldHippy
When it's time for bed in our house we read three to four stories a night to our son. Usually we read something, sometimes we make it up and sometimes I tell him stories from memory. Last night he asked for Batman's origin story.

Sunderland "Daddy, tell me Batmans Origin story."
Me "Sunderland, it's too sad for you."
Sunderland "I like that, I won't cry, I promise."
Me "Are you sure Sunderland, it's really sad."
Sunderland "Yeah, I'm sure, please tell me Daddy, please, please, please..."
Me "Ok, fine. A long time ago there was a little boy named Bruce and one day his parents took him to see a movie. On their way home a bad guy jumped out of the darkness and pulled a gun on them. They tried to fight him off and he killed both of them. Then little Bruce's parents were gone for ever and ever and.."
Sunderland slowly growing a big smile turns to look at me "Daddy, did little Bruce get to play video games every day after that!!"

I didn't realize the story was too sad for me and not him.

Little Bruce didn't have videogames and TV wasn't even invented back then. That's how he grew up to be so tough.

Sunderland, do you want to grow up to be tough like Batman?

I will never forget the time I took my 3 year old daughter to a playground and soon after another 3 year old girl of African descent appeared and the other girl kept following my daughter around trying to play with her and my daughter kept running away to a different part of the playground. Eventually we stopped our daughter and asked her what was wrong with the other girl and our daughter said "I don't want to play with her because she is black." Luckily she has outgrown her early racism and has since had friends from all over the ethnic rainbow.
