Why do people always lie to kids? I mean sometimes it may be necesary, but most of the time the kids believe the lies. It may not seem harmful for the kids to believe the lies, but they may grow up and become adults who believe the lies. Why not just tell kids the truth. It would make life less confusing. I mean I remember some of the stuff people told me when I was a little kid, and some of it I believed and sometimes I wonder why people had to make up such weird stuff.
