Everyone has lied at some point in their life. Not everyone has a true definition of what a Lie actually is. A TRUE LIE has intent, and it has purpose. The intent to deceive someone to see a situation exactly how you want them to see it. This carries the purpose of them joining your cause. The intent to get away with something that is socially or morally wrong. The purpose is to avoid a consequence for your actions. However, Protecting is not a lie. Not sharing everything with your children about a situation but filtering the information is not lying. The Intent is to Protect, and the Purpose is to preserve.
THE TIPPING POINT!
Intent to Deceive leads to Lies.
Intent to Protect Does not.
Purpose to mislead for personal gain or no consequence leads to Lies.
Purpose to Filter content does not.
