ashbelx Thanks Steph! I guess there is really no definite point in your life wherein you can say i'm happy and i'll never be sad again. It depends on how you work to achieve your happiness and on how you view or define true happiness or you. Maybe we just have to...

ashbelx I remember an old saying: " Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive." Yes, white lies can't be avoided sometimes but when the children are involve, the consequences are minor compared to the distortions and confusions and...

ashbelx That is true. I don't know why it seems a lot easier to hide the truth than being honest. I think the older we get the better we are at lying. The world today seems to evolve in lies. from our government officials down to our church leaders. they lie too. If...

ashbelx hello azaerus! Thanks. I was really astounded by my daughter's perceptiveness. It's really something parents should be proud of. BUt on the other hand that makes her sensitive to things happening around her. I'm being careful with what i say when she's...

ashbelx Thanks! really, children are more difficult to talk with than adults. Not because they are being difficult but because we can't fool them. Really! They can ask questions out of their questions and can make answering their questions very difficult. But it's...

ashbelx Very true. but know what? I'ts not easy to explain to children why adults have to lie sometimes. I told them that there are times when adults have to lie to avoid hurting other people's feelings. But my daughter's best friend answered me that she lies too...
