Gaming Questions From A Newbie That Have Made Me Think

So, I'm helping a friend with getting her kids talked about into RPGs and we have talked about them a lot. She plays in another friend's AD&D game, so that is her base familiarity with RPGs. She asks a lot of interesting questions that have made me think.



One of the first was, "What is the goal of a roleplaying game?"



My response was, "To have fun."



What responses would you have given?
