The results further demonstrates the "mixed messages" that parents are sending their children about fibbing versus being honest in different contexts.
“This research tends to show there exists a complicated relationship with the truth that children must navigate to learn what is socially acceptable,” explained lead author Dr Laure Brimbal from the School of Criminal Justice & Criminology, at Texas State University.
“Most parents will have been embarrassed or upset by their children’s brutal honesty at some point. Learning to tell lies is a normal part of children’s social development.”
To reach their conclusion, researchers examined 267 adults, from Northeast US, showing them videos of 24 children, aged 6 to 15, telling the truth or lying in various social situations.

Liza Foreman CANNES – Three film women of Japan hit the Croisette on Tuesday for Mipcom’s Asian World Premiere screening of Kansai TV’s groundbreaking female TV reporter series “Elpis,” set in Japan’s male-centric TV universe.
