We heard that we shall not tell lies as it will lead our noses grow longer. This is common to say it to children. Are there any other results? Here we will also say if you tell lies, your teeth will be fallen out Perhaps it is scary enough for children

I never told my son any of those or I would be teaching him exactly how to lie.

@JudyEv My son was very smart even at a very young age. In fact I just had to explain to him things and he would never do it at all. He was very curious at every thing so I try to satisfy those curiosity by explaining thoroughly everything. I know most kids draw on the walls but my son never did though I saw that he was tempted to.. I explained to him how much better his drawings would be on a paper instead of the wall and he understood perfectly.
So I think we shouldn't scare our children with lies that could backfire when they grow up and become wiser.

@flpoolbum I guess, if we are not really used to telling a lie, we will always be caught thru our facial expression or thru our eyes.

I always remember the advice, "Always tell the truth, it's the easiest to remember."

@Mavic123456 ~If you have enough money to afford a good plastic surgeon, your nose could be any way that you want it to be.

I did not tell my kids any of these things. Or that Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and ghosts etc. were real. I think they turned out okay.

Nope. I always told them the truth, lie and I will beat you , not really! I explained that when caught life would be worst than just telling the truth.
