In case you've ever wondered why X doesn't seem to approve of her parents' secrets, yet is not above lying herself, it's not inconsistency or hypocrisy.  The fact of the matter is, when it comes to social skills, X is very, very lazy.  Since truth is usually easier than falsehood, X tends to tell the literal truth when asked, yet never volunteers anything (creating misleading situations like this).  Her attitude towards her parents' secrets could be summarized thus: "You're making me put in effort to communicate.  Grr!"
