Or if you are a parent, what lies do you tell you children?

My Dad told me that colour wasn't invented until the 1950s, which is why old movies were all black and white.

nicely, we've the obtrusive like Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, the tooth Fairy, Angels, Fairies, and the questionable one, God. This opens a can of worms because of the fact then you definately've Heaven and Hell. Do you tell your little ones that they are genuine or myths and legend? do you choose them to pass by way of existence scared? nutrition for theory! Then we've the handy white lies that we make up. "Daddy is working late", once you already know he's down on the bar/pub with friends. you need to amplify in this, there are hundreds! Why can we misinform our young little ones? Do they ever forgive us or do they ignore?

My parents never told me any lies. My older brother told me red kidney beans were fish kidneys (result: I wouldn't eat them), I think loads of people got told the 'if you pull a face and the wind changes you'll be stuck like it' one. My nan told me and my bro that if your belly button was where your skin got done up and if you poked it too much it'd come undone and you'd unravel. But my Nan also told us that there were pixies living at the bottom of the garden...

If we didn't go to bed the llama was coming! we always ran up because we didn't know what a llama was. I remember running away when we went to the zoo and my Dad said "Oh , look there's some llamas!"

the usual tooth fairy springs to mind, we would even make certificates on the computer thanking the child for the tooth.
of course the obligatory santa stuff (sorry to put this on you if you still believe)

My parents used to tell me that when the ice-cream van came round, playing its tune, it was the dustbin men, signalling for you to put your bins out

I was afraid of my room so she said to put a flower in the window seal that will scare them off. I was really stupid to believe that!

I used to tell my son that I had eyes in the back of my head and could tell if he had been naughty. He always owned up if he had been, until he realised that you couldn't have eyes in the back of your head

If I ate my burnt toast, it would make my hair curly. Can't remember them ever telling me any real lies
