Daily Joke: Little Boy Teaches His Classmate How to Blackmail Adults
Children always think they can outsmart adults, so after some advice from his friends, little Johnny tried his hand at manipulation and ended up an unexpected confession.
Keeping too many secrets can be costly
One day at school, a little boy called Johnny was talking to his classmates when they told him that most adults are hiding at least one dark secret, so it's very easy to blackmail them by saying, "I know the whole truth"
Johnny decided to try it out when he got home that very day. When he arrived, his mother greeted him, and he told her:
"I know the whole truth."
His mother quickly handed him $20 and begged him not to tell his father. Johnny was pleased with the outcome, so he waited for his father to get home from work.
When his father walked through the door, he greeted him, saying "I know the whole truth." Promptly his father handed him $40 and begged him, "Please don't say a word to your mother."
The next day, pleased with all the money he had been getting, Johnny thought he'd try it out on the mailman.
On his way to school, when he saw the mailman at his front door, he greeted him by saying: "I know the whole truth." The mailman immediately dropped the mail, opened his arms, and said:
"Then come give your daddy a great big hug!"
