Tricky Parents Shared The Cute Lies They Tell Their Kids To Motivate Them To Behave Better

Every now and then, parents tell little lies to make parenthood easier, even if just for a moment.

When your children start to talk and understand the world around them, they undoubtedly have many questions about everything. In the beginning, facing their curiosity about the world and how it works makes you probably the proudest parent.

However, after a while, it can be quite tiring to answer so many questions of "why, why, why?" Sometimes, you may not be in the mood to explain something multiple times, or you might be in a hurry or simply having a bad day.

On these low days, parents may resort to a small lie just to make these questions a little easier. It is not the brightest side of parenthood, but it helps a lot.

Children believe that grown-ups are always correct and know everything, which makes lying to them easier. Even if it seems like a bad thing when you say it out loud, it actually isn't.

But it is a bit sarcastic because parents want their children to be honest with them and not to reciprocate the same. Anyway, an innocent lie won't hurt them; on the contrary, it can help you overcome a grueling moment.

A Twitter user going by the name @Lhlodder heard her friend telling an innocent lie to her children, and now she is interested in whether other people do the same. Let's see what tricks parents use to make their children behave well.
