Backstory: I'm a (radio) astronomer. J is 3yrs old. Some weeks ago, we discussed that my job is "researching stars". This morning:
me: We need to get going!
J: I'm going to D's house. E is going to R's house. And you're going to work.
me: That's right.
J: But there are no stars out during the day!
me: !?
J: You can't research!
me: oh snap!
So I explained 1) there are stars during the day, but the Sun makes it too bright to see them, and 2) I use my computer to look at them. Sheesh. Next he's going to ask to see the stars on my computer. Does he believe I actually work?

Ha ha! Sounds like his Dad ... "I don't believe in Santa because he doesn't use different wrapping paper that the parents" - show me the evidence!
his Dad... "I don't believe in the tooth fairy, but don't tell Mom and Dad or they'll quit leaving me money."
