which is probably what the kid meant by "you said we were doing this for the show."

Responses:

The context of the kid's quote/full quote doesn't indicate it was a hoax IMO. - Cuzzin Todd Oct 17, 08:57 7
- as soon as the kid says it the dad farts.... what more confirmation do you need? -- nm - stewie Oct 17, 09:09 [youtube]

- The context of "my kid might die, I should call the news... oh, and maybe the police, I guess", however, does. -- nm - TFox Oct 17, 08:58 4
  - this is my point. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt until he took the time to look up the number of the news before dialing a number - amanda Oct 17, 09:02 3
    - "Action 8 news?! This isn't 911?!" -- nm - TWuG Oct 17, 09:04 2
      - I mean, even if you are such an attention whore that you know the number of the news by heart, when you think your kid's life is in danger, that is - amanda Oct 17, 09:05 1
        
        I only glanced at the transcript yesterday, but I've read that during the 911 call, he interrupted the 911 dispatcher to check a call on his cell. -- nm - mara Oct 17, 09:10
the lesson as always: don't trust a 6 year old with your secret plans. -- nm - Reagen Oct 17, 08:52 2
- well, I mean, they had to give him sort of explanation. they couldn't just be like, dude, go hide in the closet for 4 hours. - amanda Oct 17, 08:53

agreed. -- nm - Beaker Oct 17, 08:50
