It's OK to lie to anyone.
I adore the ***** who calls herself Reality. |

That was a lie? OK, now I'm really mad at my parents.

People actually tell their kids that the Tooth Fairy trades their tooth for some money. Lie.

People actually tell their kids that the Tooth Fairy trades their tooth for some money. Lie. Edit: Trades some money for a tooth, rather. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_fairyYeah... because we shouldn't encourage imagination in children. We should just tell them that they will have a sad life of hardship and die a agonizing death one day. If a kid want's to believe in fairies and unicorns when they are little, as all kids do and want to, it's not my place to smash their little imaginations. Huge difference compared to a "lie", and to call it such just lessens what a lie is. If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything -Mark Twain Wow, what a liar he actually was, eh? I don't need to remember the tooth fairy, it's just a myth, folklore, which is just a tradition with imagination for the benefit of children. If you somehow feel wronged by your parents for playing imaginary games with you... well can't help you there.
It's OK bro. Let it out. I wish the Tooth Fairy was real too.
As far as I'm concerned, things like the Tooth Fairy and Santa are not necessarily "for the benefit of children". It's a lie, plain and simple. I don't really care, it just is what it is.

I used to picture a goofy cartoon guy doing a "boogie" type dance when I would think about the boogie man. I was still scared of it but that's what popped into my head when I was a kid.
