A woman told me that she would tell her sons a fib whenever the ice cream truck would drive by their house. They would hear the music and ask what it was. She told them it was the truck that says when it's time to go to sleep.

sometimes lying to a kid is not so bad like when you tell a child about the tooth ferry I always enjoyed that one since I got a dollar when I woke up and I don't regret it till today.

I would rather have said Hashem gave you the dollar and let the child be thankful to Hashem and it would still be the truth, then say the tooth fairy 8)

I don't think that is lying.
The truck IS coming to play music. (and get kids attention to run outside with pocket change too!) we just leave the second part out!!!!!

one of my friends' mother used to pick up all their belongings (not only toys) that were not put away and make them pay her to get them back!

Moi? Say ridiculous things? That's ridiculous! LOL

I always end up saying "don't eat with your mouth full".

Most ridiculous thing my mom said to me was "when you get married your skin will clear up." I did and it didn't. Rolling Eyes
