Liar, liar, pants on fire! My sister used to sing and jeer at me whenever my mom will catch me with my mischievous acts and I would often make up excuses just so I could avoid punishment. But my mom would always punish me not with her spanking but with a threat like Pinocchio's. She said that if I continuously lie, one day my nose would grow long and there's nothing I can do to push it back. And if God decides that I've done enough as a naughty boy, I would transform into a wooded puppet like Pinocchio. From then on, I would always tell the truth. But kids nowadays are too clever. You can't possibly manipulate them with Pinocchio's story. Is it time for
desperate measures?!
