Santa, the tooth fairy, and the Easter bunny are just a few of the lies parents tell their kids. They’re innocent, and sometimes a little white lie can save the day when a child refuses to eat anything but plain pasta or thinks that putting on a hat is the most offensive thing in the world. Parents can get really creative if it means that they have to defuse fewer tantrums, and the examples you’ll find below are perfect proof of that. Scroll down to find some of the funniest and biggest lies parents have told their kids, and don’t forget to upvote those you might be using next time your little one tries to test you.

My mom told me that coffee stunted your growth. One day, working as a dental assistant at 20, my patient goes “what’s your fav coffee place around here” I respond with “oh I don’t drink coffee, my mom said it stunts your growth” right then my mom walks into the room (she was also an assistant and friends with the patient) so the patient looks at her and goes “do you wanna tell her or should I?” 😭😭😭
