That moment when your entire academic career flashes before your eyes. You've written papers on quantum chromodynamics and the Higgs field, but now you're sweating bullets because your kid just asked the physics equivalent of "why is the sky blue?" but way harder. The truth? Even with 8,000 citations, we're all just pretending to understand how magnets work at the quantum level. It's basically "exchange interaction and quantum mechanical spin alignment" followed by nervous laughter and hoping they don't ask a follow-up question. Nothing humbles a physics professor faster than a child's curiosity!
