There is a lot they don’t warn you about becoming a parent, but one of the biggest things they miss off the checklist is just how many white lies you’ll have to tell to your little ones.

From using them to get our kids to behave, to scoring some free food off those unsuspecting innocents, white lies become part of everyday life for many mums and dads.

And now parents have taken to Twitter to share #TheLiesWeTellKids for an amazing new social media trend.

Be warned, some of these might make you laugh just a LITTLE too loudly…

Amazing.
