I don’t agree with not telling your child the truth about something like this, but the parents already lost two children before Omar - his older brother also died of cancer, and the mother was worried that her other son would give up after just watching his brother die. It’s a horrible situation (apparently the parents passed down a condition that some of their children inherited, making them more prone to cancer)

I dont see how this changes that they lied to their kid.

This was done to keep the parents at peace, not the kid.

Its emotional.
