Brilliant lies
Hello rishi, good morning! is your mom there at home?
No aunty; she is busy and told me to tell you that she went out..
I remember reading so many such jokes and cartoons which demonstrate parents encouraging children to convey false messages/ information. But we can not take it, when kids come out with a lie.
However, latests research done at one of the universities in north Florida concludes in a different way; they found that, kids who lie often for very simple and silly things are far ahead in their IQ levels comparating to other kids. They picked up closed 120 children from different schools, with in the age group of 6-7years to do this research. kids who lie a lot exhibited extraordinary memory power and have done so well in many tests, whereas kids with no habit of lying, remained behind.
When kids lie for every reason, their brain works even more fast just to pick up the right alternative information, and simultaneously they practice to increase their memory power just to make sure to redeliver the same details. "when kids lie often, this process helps them undoubtedly, as their verbal power, mental ability and of course their creative skills increase drastically" say this research. So parents, next time when you find your kid lying, need not get panic and don't be worried ; instead, stay relaxed as they are going to be brilliant in other areas of life.
Nevertheless, as parents we definitely not be so comfortable or can't watch this show even though the studies and explorations say this. According to psychologists, kids just take some time and will come out of this habit on their own, on the other hand, parents need to monitor and make a note of the things which are picked up by their kid when lie. Its a proven fact that parents are the best scientists and psychologists and mentors as far their child is concerned. So, keep an eye on your child's behavior and can take call accordingly.
