Are all men liars, or is it just because Bear is 4 that he has begun to lie? This has started in the past few weeks and I don't know if it's a phase that he will pass through soon. It's lies about stupid stuff like "Bear, did you drop that?" "Me?! Why would I drop that [ha ha]? No it wasn't me." "Really, cuz...there's no one else here." And he then proceeds to make up stories. Most recently he told me that his grandmother died. HE'S 4 1/2!! Why would you lie about that? It's so weird.
So I punish him every time I catch him lying. I have a zero tolerance policy. However, what I'd really like to do is point at him and start screaming "LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE, HANGING FROM A TELEPHONE WIRE!!!" And then if possible actually take his pants off and burn them on a telephone wire.
