Hi Jane, I’m not a fan of lies, especially from friends. But I’ll admit ? I once told my parents I had finished my homework so I could keep playing video games. In reality, I hadn’t even started. Of course, I ended up staying up late to get it done. That experience taught me the hard way not to procrastinate. Have you ever told a little lie like that? Take care, Peter Hi Peter, Thanks for your honest story! Yes, I’ve told a small lie, too. Once, a friend made me lunch, and I told her I enjoyed it even though I didn’t. She had put so much effort into it, and I didn’t want to hurt her feelings. I think it’s fine to lie if it protects someone’s feelings. Warm wishes, Jane
