      I was absolutely questioning shit at that age.

      I remember being 5yo and asking my mom while police cars could drive through red lights with no lights on, while we had to wait.

        At least there is a legitimate reasoning for your question.

      I think most “my kid made an interesting observation” stories sound fake, but this checks out for me.

      When kids think of a “law man” they probably think of sheriffs and cops. When a kid overhears an adult mention “law school” they probably think it’s where a “lawman” went to school.
