I am not a native speaker, but just wondering if you can use a non-why question as the embedding clause of confess.
a. I confessed to my wife why I started smoking again.
(Pretty sure this one with why-question is grammatical, right?)
What about:
b. I confessed to my parents what I ate last night.
(Suppose that my parents do not let me eat junk food, but last night I ate potato chips secretly and felt guilty about it.)
c. I want to confess to my parents what I ate last night.
(Same context as (b))
Thank you!
