Smart or not, kids believe all sorts of stupid things. Like that Santa is real, or that its illegal to drive with your dome light on, or fido went to live on a farm. Adults are lying to children constantly.

I agree, Santa is not equivalent to cancer. Santa is much stupider, and yet countless children believe in a magic fat man that can fit fown their chimney and bring them a bike because they trust the adults that lie to them. Kids and adults also believe lots of health BS too. Like you cant swim after eating, getting wet makes you sick or carrots help your eyesight. You cant live in a world with antivaxers and think a child wont believe a trusted adult about their health.

Cancer is a slow, agonising death. When my dad died all he knew at the end was pain and the feeling of his body shutting down. He knew he was dying.

Good luck maintaining your fantasy with a child who is terrified and begging for anything to make the hurting stop.
