Lies My Parents Told Me

[OminousCloud]

Did your parents make crap up to get you to do things? My mum used to tell me that if I didn't finish my food I didn't love my parents and it would remove a year from their life.

 

I'm threading, like a spidah!

[Alphabet]

My parents said they would disown me if I kept being stubborn. Ha.
My brother told me that the mole on the side of my stomach, the side of a pencil eraser, was a egg laid by a mosquito =/
ooshy ooshy ooshy

[AVAlution]

One time when I was little I was mad and threatened to runaway so my parents said "okay I will see you when you're 80." This made me mad so I packed up and ran away. I made it to the end of the street before I started to cry and ran back home. It worked.

Also there is the obvious "Santa," "tooth fairy," "Easter bunny," etc. to get you to be nice and have manners (I guess) but siblings ruined that for me at a verrryyy young age. </3

My parents told me that I would marry a man with a pockmarked face (note: bad acne) if I don't finish all the rice on my plate. I dunno. =/

My mom kept telling me about these bars where they secretly put drugs in your drinks when you leave them unsupervised.

Yet I looked everywhere and couldn't find a single free drug bar.

My dad told me that if I did not do my homework he would unleash the hoard of Communazi Spiders, he has in a little briefcase, on me. Damn you communazi spiders.

My mom once told me and my sisters that things don't grow in closets, like monsters and such. Little did she know I was constantly locking my little brother and sister in closets to prevent them from growing and to keep them young forever. They would scream and cry to be let out but I kept reminding them it was for their own good.
So far there's no psychological damage (I hope there won't be).

[DOOM!]

My mom once told me to play with a rat we saw, walking down the street, said it was actually a hamster. So I did, and I got bitten on the finger and had an infection.

[Meenah]

My dad told me that "if a boy talks to me in school, he'll become my boyfriend." o_o So its why I stayed away from boys for a long time until middle school.

-My parents told me that if I ever got up at night, the monsters under my bed would eat my legs off. =/
-I was also told that if I didn't finish what was on my plate, my best friend would come over and kiss me. Eww, cooties.
-My mom also told me that the stork made a deal with her. If she managed to deal with being fat for 9 months, that he would give her a child. Its been 5 years now and
I keep asking why hasn't the next child arrived yet.
-And we don't have the toothfairy where we are from. Instead we have this mouse that comes take your teeth to replace his own. And in exchange he leaves you money.

My parents didn't lie for the most part. It was either the truth, or "We'll talk about that when you're older."

[Aku no Hikari]

My father never lied to me, he used to be honest and straightforward about everything. No point in lying, filling your children's minds with garbage that reduces their intelligence, and make them upset about it later when they figure out. The only thing he didn't tell me everything about is "the birds and the bees". He just kept dodging the question with random facts until he told me to shut up after giving up on my endless chain of questions.

My mother, on the other hand, used to lie always, about the most trivial matters. Such as, if you don't eat your meat (and I used to be a meat hater), you will [insert typical "scary" things here], which I never believed. And I remember when I confronted her and told her she's lying, she usually responded with something like, "you dare tell your mom she's a liar? Parents never lie!" Eh, yeah, mom. Right... Riiiiight. And that, of course, made her resort to another way to "convince" us to eat. >_>

She still lies, a lot. She just doesn't know how ridiculous and dumb it looks like.

[Nanobyte]

=/ I didn't have to deal with this crap when I was a little kid, but I guess when I was like 4 my parents would have made things up, like any other parent would.

[DOOM!]

And that, of course, made her resort to another way to "convince" us to eat. >_>

She didn't spare the rod either, eh? Yep, moms, the cancer of your life.

When i was a kid my mom told me that a hand will pop out of the ground and take me away if i always play late outside, we have like this huge garden at our old house and there was this weird grown mango tree and she always use this crap to scare me.

Another one, my dad told me that if i ate a seed of any fruit a tree would grow inside me!! it was bleh but it scared me when i was a kid. yep!! my parents knew alot of crap! i could go on with hundreds of this sh!t.

Another thing is when i was on grade school i think i was 10 me and my sister got into a fight and she told me i was adopted. im still not sure if this one is a lie!! XD

[.Tatty.]

My parents told me I was "Bright" as an excuse to do my school work, didn't work, but still they lied.

[Megamind's Minion]

well, they were the usual...
SANTA...
lolz...
others were reserved for 'when you are older' and most were kept from me...
so, technically they were not lying...

[Stripes]

Well it is weird.. but my parents never lied to me.. I thought real hard but I couldn't remember any incident. Yea.. my mother blackmails me emotionally like, she will start crying and I mean it if I don't eat anything.. I am like a little kid who is too stubborn about not eating the things she doesn't like..

[Xeyuzio]

They told me that murderers would kill us if we where bad O_O

[Alexa_miyagi]

They told me that murderers would kill us if we where bad O_O

this like is so an epic fail!! XD ahaha

[*Tsuki*]

Uhm, the things that come to mind:

- My dad goes to school everyday to make sure I'm drinking my white milk (I believed it until 5th grade)
- If you sit too close to the tv, your head will explode. (I still keep my head far away from the tv for the most part. <_< )

More to come when I remember.

[Simmi]

My parents told me they'd send me away on a farm if I'd misbehave.. xD

[Genghis Beatrix]

My mom told me that if I drank coffee that it would stunt my growth.
Parents are such horrible liars.

[BigduO209]

My Mother used let her co-worker babysit me when I was little, she said the woman that stayed with her co-worker was her Sister.

I found out that she was gay because my Mom was next to me mentioning it in a phone conversation to someone else, she even didn't tell it to me personally after all these years. I don't care that my babysitter was gay, but to not know something like that after all these years was messed-up.

[Gero50]

As far as flat out lying goes my parents have never done that to me. Though they would say the typical white lies most parts tell their children. Like "Where do babbies come from before they're born?" My mom would answer,"My Tummy". So yah little white lies nothing so fa off that is was crazy.
