Supersonic 49,376 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 According to a study by psychologist Peipei Setoh, white lies that parents use, to enforce rules in their children's lives have a negative effect on them later in life. Adults, who were subjected to hearing lies such as "Eat up, or the sun won't shine tomorrow", "If you don't behave, somebody is going to kidnap you tomorrow", "If you lie, you get a long nose" are • lie more frequently for no reason even in their adulthood • have problems trusting other people, as they expect to be lied to either way • more likely to lie and cheat their ways towards goals, as they are taught that lying is a valid way of getting things done • more likely to exhibit impulsive and aggressive behaviours • more likely to have trouble integrating themselves into teams at university/work https://science.orf.at/stories/2995437/?utm_source=pocket-newtab Link to the study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23173801# Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas P 18,479 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Is that why I lie so much? I always thought it was cause I was gay and was used to doing it for years I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
