Disgusting Lies

People wonder why kids don’t listen to their parents. But they don’t realize how badly kids are treated. They get lied to every month of every year. We are told Santa brings us presents. We are told there is a bunny that hops around and gives us candy. We are told that there are magical tiny people that come around building rainbows and giving gold to lucky people. It's so tragic that we get into so much trouble for sneaking out, or lying to a teacher. But really, parents should be the one's getting in trouble for lying to us every waking moment of our lives.

Santa is great. Every December he comes around and gives us things we want. Of course no one wants to completely get rid of Christmas, but we should change it up a little. We could actually tell the truth to kids! No way, right? Well, it's the right thing to do. According to Parent Beyond Belief, six percent of kids die each year because they find out the truth about the obese man that celebrates holidays only by giving. We could change this, and give up on Santa. It's fine if your parents give you presents, it'll make a big deference and every year there will be no percentage of kids dying because of Christmas.

Next to Christmas, Easter Is pretty bad, too. Many kids start to believe that a giant bunny passes out candy to every kid in the whole world. This is bad because when they're older they decide that they will catch this bunny. They don't trust rabbits hopping around their house. This is very dangerous considering that children might try to set up traps for these creatures, and then the bunny never comes, well that's what they think. But really, they leave their hiding fort and find baskets in their living room. The Easter bunny is the most unrealistic. At least Santa is human, unlike the symbol for Easter. We need to make this holiday more realistic, this is why kids have wacky imaginations. This is why kids run around the yard naked. This is why we need to change holidays and they way we treat children.

St. Patrick's Day is by far the worst holiday! So many kids are terrified by the fact that there are tiny people roaming around their house anytime in that day. This is unacceptable. That's not even the true meaning of St. Patrick's day! It all started when a very clever man who brought Christianity to Ireland. Everyone respected him so much, they made a holiday that was named after him. This holiday is touching, and should not be treated so dreadfully. St. Patrick deserves some respect, and never was he a leprechaun. Leprechauns have nothing to do with this holiday, and we are treating it the wrong way. That's what people believe in, and we shouldn't make up some dim-witted story, even though adults tend to do it a lot.

As you know, kids love holidays. They have merriment times no matter what day or what time it is. But, we shouldn’t be lying to them. No child deserves these lies given to them by their own parents. When they find out that these things were all lies, they start lying because they think it's okay. They get into so much trouble, not only with their parents, but with kids at school as well. Also, all the three holidays mentioned are not very realistic, and they could start thinking out of the ordinary. This is why people believe in aliens taking over the world. This is why people believe in the world ending on twenty-twelve. This is why kids don’t do well in school. They're scared about what's going to happen next. If we stop telling lies now, imagine how much further in life everyone will get. Parents should stop with the lies, and tell the truth, or sooner or later no body will be telling the truth.
