    Alternatively, we could stop lying to our kids from a young age. When you think about it, it’s just normalizing the act of lying, which is kinda fucked up

      Honestly I never even thought about the lying aspect, I grew to dislike the concept since it’s teaching kids that an old man is spying on them all the time.
