The point of the story is not to be afraid to tell your father if
you did something wrong. its better to tell the truth and get punished than be a liar. And that
everyone makes mistakes sometime but true heros are honest about it. the story itself is false.

It is a false story. The point is though to show how truthful George Washington was.

false.
at one point, fiction was so frowned upon in the early US that fiction had to be disguised as history: the cherry tree is one example; Columbus breaking the flat-earth theory was another (educated people knew the world was round for thousands of years).
