Like Chris, I wonder what the sub-text is.
- Dad, I need a new iPod.
- Dad, I flunked a test at school again.
- Dad, you know that window in our neighbour’s house that overlooks our garden …?
Thanks Chris, at least I know I’m not the only cynic around here.

Victor, its not so much that I’m a cynic, but I am a parent of teenagers and there is always an angle behind a compliment,
Like the little boy who said to the pastor, “When I grow up I’m gonna give you a whole bunch of money!”
“Really?” The pastor replied, “Why’s that?”
“Because my daddy says that you’re the poorest pastor he’s ever known!”
Can you make a comic out of that joke?
Sounds like your son is bucking for a raise in the allowance..
