Dear Friends,
Carmen raised an interesting and amusing topic this morning on 'Where Do I Start? from ChrisC, about her attempts to stop her father from driving. Her way of dealing with this was ingenious.
Basically - how to successfully tell 'white lies' without feeling guilty?
I've told some 'whoppers' to my parents to prevent them from getting into dangerous situations; to avoid endlessly tedious conversations or to just keep life running smoothly. I'm not trying to be flippant about serious issues, but sometimes a bit of humour can help .....
How do you cope? Perhaps we can share some devious moments without feeling bad about it and post them in one topic heading.
Jude
