My dad just told me that my puppies from 7 years ago didn't actually run away, all 5 of them died when we went on vacation but him and my mom lied to save me and my little brothers feelings.
What's some of the worst lies your parents told you as a kid?
everytime me and my mom went shopping and I spotted something I'd like and asked her she would always say: ''I buy it when we pass by here in our way back home, baby"
My mom told me she cancelled my piano lessons because I didn't practice enough, but it was really because my piano teacher DIED.
That my dad was only married twice.
I also had a hypnotizing disc and I would try to hypnotize my mom with my friends and she would pretend to act all dazed and do whatever we say. I got her to jump on the bed and act like a monkey. Her lies had me thinking I was a magician and ****.
My next door neighbor/best friend had a pet monkey and every day of my early (1-5) childhood I would go there and hang out with it and my friend. Then one day my parents told me they had to get rid of it but that it was safe, but in reality, like my piano teacher, it died.
That it was illegal to ride my bike without a helmet
That this really unhealthy pot noodle I wanted was banned to under 16 year olds
That if you want a baby you just wish really hard for one
I didn't know that my Dad (stepdad/adoptive father) wasn't my biological father until I was 9. They didn't really outright lie to me, I guess; just withheld the info until they felt I would be old/mature enough to understand.
