I always hate the inevitable interrogations when something gets destroyed, and nobody knows how it happened. But, I imagine the complete opposite would be even more frustrating:
Who broke this?
Me
How?
Ninja moves.
Will you please be more careful?
Probably not
Don’t you even care?
Not really.
Perhaps there aren’t when you’re a 5 year-old kid and know shit about social etiquette.
Agreed, at any age if you don’t know shit about social etiquette then saying nothing is good advice.
or mom should not lie and live in fantasy?
If the truth would embarrass you if others knew, why would you do it?
Because it’s embarrassing that no one in her life cares enough about her to gift her something she actually wants?
I wouldn’t do it myself, but I can understand why someone would.
Lie and live in fantasy all you want, but dont let your child in on it. They’ll stitch you up every time.
