To be fair to Raj (the guy who had just accidentally killed a bull), from his perspective "the bull is dead" is a very important part of the story.

It's maybe a question of perspective. His ability to consider his parents' perspective might have been somewhat limited by the fact that he was 17, it was late at night and he'd just been in a car crash which resulted in the death of a bull.

I think he did a great job and it's a great story. Glad to hear he's ok, he's lucky! RIP the bull though :(

I didn't mean to criticize the kid, although I can see how it came out as such.

I'm criticizing the dads ability to showcase a great example of the "right information in the right detail without going into unnecessary explanations."

And I think a big part of the authors choice of example is exactly because it is "tantalizing" - it piques your curiosity because there isn't enough information to make sense of the situation.
