My parents were heartbroken at the thought of me saying something like that and I'm sure they've never forgotten it. Long story short, don't be afraid to call someone out on their shit.
I'd say no cause I didn't want to be mean and call someone a liar. That would then get me into trouble since I didn't defend myself. One girl even went to a teacher and said I told her my parents abused me. They were furious but again, I wasn't going to call someone a liar.

Story time. When I was little I got into trouble a lot for all the wrong reasons. If I got confronted about something I had nothing to do with, the person questioning me would say, "Are you telling me that so-and_so is lying?" As a kid I knew that name calling was bad. (1)
Got off work, played videogames with my 22nd and now I'm making him brownies at 2 in the morning. I don't even like brownies but he does and ill treat him like the prince he is cause I love him.
@markiplier A modern blacksmith would probably just be a welder which isn't too difficult. I was certified in two years. Bet you could do it in 3 days.
