The truth is always less painful

Once upon a time, there was a guy sunbathing in the nude. He saw a

little girl coming toward him, so he covered himself with the

newspaper he was reading.

The girl came up to him and asked,

"What do you have under the newspaper?"

"A bird," the guy replied.

The girl walked away, and the guy fell asleep. When he woke up, he was

in a hospital in tremendous pain. When the police asked him what

happened, the guy replied,

"I don't know. I was lying on the beach, this little girl asked me

about my privates, and the next thing I know is I'm here."

The police went back to the beach, found the girl, and asked her,

"What did you do to that naked fellow?"

After a pause, the girl replied, "To him? Nothing. I was playing with

the bird and it spit on me, so I broke its neck, cracked its eggs, and

set its nest on fire."

Moral of the story........................ never lie to kids.

Having raised 5 kids myself I totally agree.

Years ago Bill Cosby had this routine called Fatherhood. In one little piece he was correcting his son about lying, the son asked, are you going to spank me, and the Coz said no we will let it slide this time. As his son turned to leave Bill let that paddle go. His son turned and said with tiers in his eyes "you said I would not be spanked" Bill said "I LIED"

I found this very helpfull for my #2 son, and you know, It works.
