I think I read somewhere that those were real answers given to questions in real classrooms. They were not fiction.

what will you say about this:

Creditor: Hello, is your dad at home?

Kid: No, he is hiding under the bed and he told me to tell everyone that he is not at home.

The father had instructed the kid to answer No. I guess he obeyed, quite all right. The man shouldn't have ask a child to tell lies. It was too much confusion to the boy's mind. So he told the truth.
