I'm pretty honest with my kids. I don't beat around the bush or tell them little white lies to save their fragile little egos and stuff like that. I pretty much tell it like it is. I don't think that beating around the bush or telling them half truths or whatever does a child any amount of good. I think it's important for them to have a firm grasp of reality from the get go and not some candy coated, easy to swallow bullshit, because what purpose does that serve? What's going to be worse for them in the long run. A dose of reality now or a dose of reality when their rainbows and unicorn dream world comes crashing down all around them. Yeah.... Chew on that for a while.
