It would be great if people were taught to say "I don't know" (in other words, to tell the truth).
It's such a liberating thing to be able to say.
I tutor kids, and sometimes they ask stuff I can't answer. I tell them I don't know but will find out, then move heaven and earth to find out. A week later, when I tell them, the look of surprise on their faces can be funny: an adult actually admitted to not knowing, and then kept a promise to find out!
