I have the same hyper sense of justice and so does my kid. Even knowing what is going on and understanding what they are dealing with, it is insanely difficult to try to get my kid to understand how to walk the fine line between being a good human/citizen and being a danger to themselves and society.

It's really amusing sometimes to catch people's reactions as you explain to a child that sometimes lies are the right choice. That the truth is sometimes not only needlessly cruel, but also unjust and unfair.
