"I was thinking about our conversation the other day…" and well, it sent us spiraling—in a good way—into the surprisingly fascinating world of childhood fibs, teenage cover-ups, and the family secrets we didn’t mean to pass down. From toddler tales to teenage white lies, we explore why kids lie, what it says about development (thank you, AI!), and how our own upbringings might have quietly endorsed the art of selective truth-telling.

Join us as we ask: Why do kids lie? Why did WE lie? And more importantly—how can we handle honesty with empathy and still keep our sanity? Spoiler: the apple doesn’t fall far from the “don’t tell your so and so I bought this” tree.
