Raising children is not easy.
You have to think long and hard before you even start to consider having a child. It is not for everyone. It takes all your time and energy. You need to make sure you are emotionally, physically, and financially stable to have a child. That is a lot of effort. Even when you plan everything out, the process of having children and raising them will never go as you expected it to. Children are full of surprises. You will realise there are so many silly and unexpected things that you will have to explain to them. Trust me, it takes a lot of patience and mental stability. Arguing with a child to eat a vegetable they don’t want to eat will take its toll on you. But you have to deal with it smartly.
Kids can even make you change your morals. Lying is wrong, right? Big or small, lies are lies. But sometimes, you have to tell your children white lies every now and then just to save yourself a lot of time. It can be a headache to try to convince them to do something by telling the truth. Say one white lie and everything will go like you wanted it to. You will need a lot of wit for that to work. Parents on Twitter shared the brilliant white lies they told their children to make their lives easier. Scroll down below and take some notes:

I’m sure some of these white lies will come in handy for you. It doesn’t hurt to tell a white lie every now and then if it benefits your child. These are actual life hacks if you ask me. I don’t think I’m smart enough to come up with anything like this, so I better start learning some of these. It is all fun and games until your child figures out you’re lying to them and then they will have trust issues forever. We’re just halfway done though, scroll down below for more brilliant white lies told by parents:
