Earlier on I was having to (try) and explain to my 2 year old why she shouldn't lie (nothing serious just silly things she tries blaming her 2 month old sister for "Have you done a poo?" "No, sis has!" etcetera,) however I don't want it to become habit so was trying to explain why she shouldn't and it got me thinking..
I felt like such a hypocrite sitting telling her not to lie and not only two minutes before I'd been lying to her..
"So Santa flies around the world with magical reindeer pulling his sleigh...."
"You have to brush your teeth everyday or they'll all fall out.."
"No sweetheart, we can't watch any more TV/don't stand so close to the TV you'll get square eyes....."
Anyone else ever feel like it and what 'lies' have you/do you tell your LO?
