My experiment with 'Truth" nope Lies

Recently, while driving back my almost five year son from school I asked him a question," Why do people lie?" Before writing his innocent answer, I would want to write the reason why after all I asked this silly question to him. Because I was struggling to find an answer and most importantly it was not just this 'why' which was boggling my mind rather I was more anxious to know as to how one should respond to a lie? Out of curiosity and also to inquire if my son has grown up enough to answer such abstract question I finally asked him. He replied," people lie so that they can watch TV." I got his answer, he was trying to say people lie to defend oneself. But  my mind does not stop thinking and the process continued. I am today going to write through my experiences with Lies.

Lies to defend oneself- commonest form of lie, nobody ever want to put in a calamity himself so till last moment one would like to get himself out of an unfavorable situation and the the best and most tested tool is to tell a lie and go ahead. A kid who does not want to eat his share of green vegetables would throw them in the trash and simply lie to his mom that he ate them all. Many of us do it more often then others. lieing about not receiveing the missed calll or a text msg, lieing about
