Parental Lying

[ocguy09]

New study shows parents often lie to their children to change/influence behavior...

They asked college students and 88% said their parents lied to them but the article didn't provide any good examples - "eat veggies or you'll get pimples"

I remember my mom telling me the cops will come and take me away if I don't stop crying.

any good ones - when you were a child or ones you are using on your children...

I was promised so many times as well, but never fulfilled

my parents told us that there were monsters outside our bedroom doors at night and they'd get us if we left our rooms

I think they used the time to smoke pot in the living room.

My mom used to tell me I would get nightmares if I ate peanuts at night. Not really sure why. Was probably just to stop me from eating food before bed as I'd usually snack on peanuts.

Well, if you eat too many they do tend to cause constipation...

My mommy used to tell me it was okay for my daddy to touch me in my no-no spot.

I get the peanut butter poop effect when I eat too many. Sucks wiping. Like cleaning peanut butter off a shaggy carpet.

And kids lie to their parents, so it's pretty even.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Who gives a shit?

 

[cherrytwist]

This is the problem. People doing "studies" on things that are pretty fucking obvious.

Uh...Does it count if you tell your 2-year-old that mommy and daddy were just wrestling...naked...

One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said. "Disneyland burned down." He cried and cried, but I think that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.
