Frank uses equivocation when speaking of his children and 'home'. He often tries to woo women by vaguely telling them that he has children and that home life is "fine"; he doesn't do into very much detail at all because that would reveal that he isn't involved enough to know the condition of his house or his children. Frank gets away with equivocation a lot because nobody ever questions him, he always has a new story/lie to tell and they don't want to get into it. Frank uses these vague answers with government officials, everyday bar-goers, and his children.
