Classic Sayings You Tell Your Kids- That are Total Crap

You know what we mean- those mini ethical lessons that your parents always used to give you? "Tommy, cheaters never win."  Now that you're an adult, you know it's all BS, but it's really a right of passage to share these little quips with your kiddos as well!

Here's a list of the most far fetched pieces of advice that parents give their kids:

1. "If you just tell the truth, I won't get mad."

2.  "Cheaters never win."

3. "When someone bullies you, it's just because they're jealous."

4.  "The real world isn't like school.  People grow up."

5.  "Just be yourself and everyone will love you."

6.  "If you're nice to people, they'll be nice back."

7.  "These are the best years of your life."

8.  "You need to go to college to succeed."

9.  "You need to learn math because you won't always have a calculator handy."

10.  "You're unique and special and deserve everything in the world." (EVERY parent should believe this one though!)

Ugh, don't you just wish some of these were true!? Maybe someday..
