I believe you and I would have believed you in the other statement if you had said, "I try never to lie".

But we are all human beans and it's in all of our natures to tell porkies, (even yours!).

I succeed - every lie 'reduces the value of your soul'.

When my friends ask "Does my bum look big in this?" they know they will get an honest answer.

mine also, but to me theres a world of differance between little kids living a happy fairy tale life, than older kids n grown-ups in the real world,just imagine a young kid starting school n at xmas telling the rest of the class what yer saying, the grief the kid n his parents would get, is worth ruining the fantasy? sorry no way for me.

Older children tell younger children all the time that Father Christmas isnt real and the young kids choose to believe their parents because they trust their parents.

show me a person that has been scarred for life for finding out that father christmas is real and I will change my opinion margaret, think you are more likely to find more who have such wonderful childhood memories instead

I am not saying scarred for life - it just makes them think that lies are readily acceptable in society (which sadly they are)

disagree completely with that, i think it shows to the kids that their parents care enough to make things as magical as possible for them and to give them wonderful memories for the rest of their lives..
