Raising kids is no easy task, and your whole life turns upside down at least until your tiny human turns eighteen and is capable of dealing with responsibilities himself. Before he or she does, you, as a parent, are responsible that your cute kid turns out to be a good member of society and a wise human being. Now, we are not going to tell you exactly how parenthood works, but we can share a little secret - if necessity is the mother of invention, then lies are invention's older sibling. How do you get your kids to behave? How do you get them to eat vegetables? When reason fails, necessity provides a solution: white lies.

Of course, we are not advocating keeping the truth from your kids, as the little lies that we've compiled below are more like embellished truth, conveyed in an easily understandable way. And though sometimes these little lies are means of convincing your misbehaving kid into doing something he'd rather not, in other cases these parenting examples are just testing the little one's sense of humor.

This list by 22words is based on a Reddit thread of a similar name and contains the most excellent actual lies parents have used on their kids.

My mom did a similar thing. She told us if we lied our tongues would turn black. So if she suspected we were kyung she would ask to see our tongues. If we refused, she knew. Simple & effective.

Am I the only one who would've gone to a mirror, told a lie and checked for a red dot? --- I used to check out everything I could that I was told as a kid. I had a rather suspicious nature when I was little.

We used the blue dot on my grandson and it worked like a charm. He would run to the mirror and look, so we told him that only Mommies and Grandmothers could see it. ;)

I told my oldest I can see it in her eyes and she squeezes her eyes shut when she's fibbing. Kid #2 couldn't care less and will even defiantly WIDEN her eyes when I catch her in a lie.

    When my boys were young enough to ride the shopping cart simultaneously, I told them the cart didn't work when they stood up. That worked so well, I told them that I couldn't drive the car if their back seat argument got too loud. Hey, you only have to pull over once... maybe twice... and once when they had a rambunctious friend with them.

    I loved to sing in the car on long journeys, when I was young and when he got fed up with it, my Dad would stop the car and let me out, saying that my voice was so good that he thought everyone outside would like to hear it. When I had had enough, he let me back in and we continued the journey.

    This is true for many vegetables, but only if you don't eat sugary things. Your palate becomes more sensitive to the sugar in carrots, beats, potatoes, and fresh peas, for example. Probably doesn't work for vegetables that are bitter, like arugula and spinach.

    I was freaked out by Santa Claus : a stranger entering the house by the chimney? Han han, no way! Even if it's to bring gifts, it was way too weird for me. My parents tried very hard to make me believe it was a great man, but still, I had to sleep with them if they didn't want me to have a panic attack. So the Santa myths didn't stay for many years, they told me early that in fact it was them and no stranger entered the house once a year.

    I had a friends Dad come to pick her up at my house. He was standing outside his car and pointing up to my bedroom window and saying Isn't that marijuana plants?" I said "No, that's..uh..mariGOLD plants. I was afraid he was going to tell me to bring one down for him to see, so I said "I bought them from some man who was selling them out of his car. They're for my Mom.

    When my daughter was little (like 18 mo) she wanted to dip her burrito in salsa. But this salsa was spicy, so I told her no. But she absolutely insisted and threw a big fit. So I was like "fine here ya go". She burnt her mouth (I gave her water and cuddled her of course, and I was eating it and I'm a wuss, so it wasn't that hot) and got super sad. But from then on, if I told her she wouldn't like something she believed me. I had that kid convinced soda was gross until she was like 5. Even if someone offered her some she would say "no I don't like that, its gross"

    You just told them that they were never going out to get chuck e cheese. You need to rethink the meaning of the term "Special occasion".

    I used to tell my kid that you are only allowed to go to Chuck E. Cheese if it's someone's birthday. It worked out well. He got to go 3-4 times a year and stopped begging to go constantly.

    Reasonable fear. I would just tell my kids that those costumed guys freak me out. Because they do. Even sports mascots freak me out, and I'm one of the biggest sports fans I know!

    You go back in time one day. Just as it clicks, you are forgetting everything that happened to you tomorrow. Unfortunately, because you forget everything that made you decide to rewind the day, everything always goes exactly as it did before you push the reset button.

    lol I was always told that if you mess with that it will turn off the power to the whole house, and that houses were like Christmas lights. If the power to our house went out, every house up the street after us would lose power and I'd be in big trouble. Apparently being told "you could get electrocuted and die" was not enough to stop 6 year old me from touching the power outlets.

    It just rests the energy flow to the oulet and if you turned the outlet off, it turns it back on. I apologize if I got any facts wrong .

    ithe outlet has a circuit breaker in it. if water gets into the circuit or any type of surge in power it trips the breaker and shuts off the electricity to the outlet in an attempt to protect your devices that are plugged in or a person from the surge... the reset button lets you turn it back on once the issue has been resolved.

    Reminds me of a dream I had when I was about five or six. I was afraid of loud noises and I had a nightmare that I pulled a plug out while a CD was playing and it made a loud horrible noise. When I woke up I asked my dad, "What happens if you unplug a CD player while it's playing?"

    Partially true. A dome light being turned on in a car at night can result in the lighting screwing with the eyesight of the driver of the car.
