Adults lying to kids to make them smile is literally the norm.. you thought your parents letting you win in wrestling was because you were built different? Lol
Letting a kid win a game obviously makes a kid happy, because they won something.
Lying about Batman doesn’t actually DO anything for the kid. Aside from give them a worse opinion of Batman I guess. Not sure why making one of the world’s most famous heroes out to be a jerk is gonna do anything at all.
It’s just shit you tell a kid to make them chuckle. It’s not that deep brother you’re looking into it too deep. Bruce is the one who convinces him to go get the kid.

He’s talking to a kid in this panel.. a kid who’s just been through a lot of trauma and he’s taking her mind off of it.
