I'll admit, sometimes I fib to my LO! Last night we were having peas and she pointed and asked if it was corn. I said it's green corn, she ate the entire bowl. She was so unsure about eating them and I was desperate for her to eat something decent so I fibbed. Oops. I'll also tell her a certain toy is napping if she wants to play with it but I need a break from whatever toy it is I likely can't stand at that moment. I'm sure it's not great to fib, and may backfire on me someday but for now it's what I've gotta do to survive these long parenting days
Do you ever fib to your LO? What was the last fib you told them? If you don't tell small lies, how in the world do you survive? Tell me your secrets!
No clue where she learned that from!
(plus, I don't think white lies set your child up for a life full of child-parent distrust and conflict).
now I'm doing damage control and calling them beet potatoes.
