AIBU to think they have set the little girl up for a big disappointment?

OK I am more than happy to be told I'm an old grump, but on This Morning they have a 'live link up' to the California Coast with a 'real life mermaid'. This mermaid is talking to a little girl who is completely mesmerised and believes every word she's being told. The presenters are asking the mermaid q's like "do you get legs if you're out of the water for too long?" or "is it possible to learn to be a mermaid?" completely seriously. AIBU to think that sooner or later the little girl is going to find out (possibly from the kids at school) that it's not real and feel huge dissapointment and maybe embarrassment when she's older? Yes I know we all tell little fibs to our kids but this is on a much bigger scale, infront of the whole nation?
