Can Lying Parents Be A Model For Kids?

Parents
Parents are supposed to be the role models for children. But the surveys shows the irony out.

Despite teaching the children to be faithful, majority of the modern parents lie 100 times in a year!

One third of the parents who participated the survey told that they have been lying to the teachers to take the kids out of the school for a day.

The young moms and dads also encourage the children to dodge the truth, in explaining why they did not do homework or were late for the school.

Two third of the parents revealed that they use their babies names under the pretext of escaping a party or for being late.

The poll further observed that as many as 90 per cent tell their kids off for lying but did not follow their own set standards.
