What were some of the lies your parents told you growing up? What are some lies you tell your children?

My dad told me that he put dye in the pool that would turn green if you peed in it. I believed him. But that was bullshrimp because years later me and my friends were drunk tanning and swimming and I peed in the pool and no one was the wiser. My parents were lying liar faces.

    My mom told me I was allergic to cats. Didn’t find out until I was like 13 that I indeed was not. She just didn’t want me asking for one... and honestly, I understand why :lol:

    When the ice cream truck came around the neighborhood playing music, my mom told me it was because the ice cream man died.

    That happens to be true.

    The great tall tailor always comes
    To little girls that suck their thumbs
    And ere they dream what he's about
    He takes his great sharp scissors out
    And cuts their thumbs clean off
    And you know, they never grow again

    If you sit too close to the television will ruin your eyes. I still sat right in front of it and still have 20/20.

    or if you watch too much you will become cross eyed!
