Mums are revealing the lies they told their kids and they’re all pretty brilliant

These are pretty great.

As we all know, we tell little white lies to our kids all the time. From the big Santa Claus one, to the mundane 'your eyes will go square from watching too much TV'... we've all done it. However, recently one mum kicked it all off by tweeting out a hashtag #WhiteLiesYouTellKids, and we have to admit, the responses are pretty funny. Mikeala Sunshine said: "You're gonna use so much math when you grow up" to kick it all off, and it rolled on from there.

You're gonna use so much math when you grow up #WhiteLiesYouTellKids
