As it was said earlier that children always speak truth. They never speak lies because there is not any bad ideas, thinking, prevail in their mind. They resemble as God and God never speak lies. But now a days parents used to speak lies in front of their children and children learn how and to speak lie. So what is your idea, isn't it good for future, because children are the future of the country.

Well children speaks mostly truth, they are forced to lie when they are threatened and out of fear.

child was originally going to say anything in the truth. But if his environment (especially his parents) are often taught lies, do not expect the child will grow up to be an honest boy. So the key is, keep the remedy "does not lie to ourselves", then our children will not learn to be a liar.

I think we are in deep trouble because children are taught to lie at an early age any more. Parents are too good at it and the children learn it well. How can a parent punish a child for something they have taught them to do. Even in simple things like telling them to answer the phone and tell the caller "mommie's not home" when she's standing right there... our generation has lost a grip on truth

yeah! i can relate. once my daughter told me my hair was a mess...wuahhh! she told me she'd comb it cause its ugly. it was the truth anyway it made me think of having it rebonded.
you can't really hide anything from a child. my daughter always ask question and unless you have explained it clearly she won't stop asking over and over again.
