What are some of the ridiculous lies parents tell little kids?

2. Dont run aorund in the nude or the dicky bird will come and peck it off


3. Stop playing with your doodle or it will fall off


4. Crusts make your hair go curly and put hairs on your chest


5. carrots will help you see in the dark


6. If you swallow bubble gum you will blow bubbles out your bottom.

I hate when parents try to control kids in public by using Police Officers as threats.


My mom always used to say that if I kept wandering off the Police would come and take me away. That instilled distrust of Police which should not be taught to young children.
Behave or I'll raise grandma from the dead and she'll kiss you alllllllllll over.
If you don't behave SANTA CLAUSE is not bring you anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!
when a kid won't go to bed they tell em they don't have to they can just lay there all night awake five minutes n there out no complaining about not wanting to sleep
When I was small, my parents told me there was a bus that would stop by and take me away if I didn't go to sleep. Funny, they couldn't figure out why I was having so many nightmares.

';Let's pull your baby teeth out, so the toothfairy can give you lots of money under your pillow while you sleep!';





';If you been bad, Santa Clause won't give you presents for christmas this year.';





';Come on ____ %26lt;-- childs name, were going to Disneylad (or somewhere they love to go) hurry get ready and lets go!'; - then really take them somewhere they hate going, ex: dentist, doctor checkup, grandparents house, etc..





';If you don't clean your room, it will cause rats to live there.';





';If you get straight A's i'll buy you anything you want.'; - could be sarcasm, if so take them to Denney's XD





';If you don't take a bath, mommy/daddy won't have clothes to clean!';





';Do you homework first, then you can watch TV.'; - could be sarcasm, if so after their homework make them clean their room then they can watch TV; or other chores.





- thats all I can think of right now. Have fun!
