ever notice how the bottom radical on the kanji to walk (•à) looks like an unhappy face... And the radical on top is stop, so I guess walking means to stop unhappy faces...Thats my answer to the riddle. Stop unhappy faces

the 'miles' is throwing me. it can't be part of the actual solution, right? so ignore it?

raindrop.. "this riddle doesn't work for the Japanese language" because miles in Japanese is mairu... katakana doesn't work for this riddle ...
However, if you want to try this riddle.. then I'll change it a bit.. (answer - one kanji) "Why can't the king adopt a foster child?"
