Yes, again, my child is smart enough to understand nuance. She doesn’t have to have everything put to her 100% literally. I’m not sure why your children do.
Also, I hope you’re not the one who is responsible for telling your children the difference between things like “honest” and “100% literally true” or they are fucked.

Sounds like your daughter might have you beat there since I didn’t say she doesn’t, I didn’t say she does, I didn’t say they do.

That’s very sweet of you.
You said I wasn’t being honest with her by not telling her the 100% literal truth. So yeah, you’re saying she doesn’t understand nuance.
I said it’s a lighter lie in that it’s not actually (literally) true.
Got it, so if you ask me to do something important for you and I tell you I’m too busy, but when in actual fact, I could quit my job, sell my belongings, move to your city and do it, it’s a lie. Right?
It’s not a lie if you actually are too busy at the moment.
I wouldn’t be too busy at the moment if I quit my job if my job was what made me busy. So it’s a lie, right?
You wouldn’t be too busy after quitting your job so whether or not it’s a lie depends on if you had quit your job before answering. If you had quit it and didn’t have anything to do at that moment then yeah it’d be a lie. If you still had your job when you answered then you wouldn’t be lying.
Wow. Everyone must be lying to you constantly. I can picture you at a restaurant after a waiter lists the specials. “Those are made of conventional ingredients I could buy at a grocery store and cook myself, so they aren’t really special now are they? You’re lying to me!”
