Firemen Do Not Put Fire On People

The other day a fire truck went racing by our car. William loves fire trucks, so Elliot and I pointed it out to him.

"They gonna go put fire on the bad guys?"

"What? No! Firemen don't put fire ON people. They put fires out. They bring water to fires and spray the water and put the fires out."

"They put fires out?"

"Yes."

"Then they put the fire on the bad guys?"

"No. They just put the fires out with water. They only put water on things."

"Only water?"

"Yes."

"WATER on the bad guys?..."

I still don't think he gets it. We'll have to work on that one.
