How wrong was I???

So I am bringing my kids to be the meanest, bitchiest dishonest little ****ers you could find.

Means I can relax and look forward to a comfy retirment with them making sure everything I need is paid for.

Obviously I would not want the hateful bitchy little tulips to come to my house becuase they are not nice people to know -- but hey they will have lots of money and this is important right?

Lying children will grow up to be successful citizens

From the Telegraph:

Lying children will grow up to be successful citizens

Researchers have found that the ability to tell fibs at the age of two is a sign of a fast developing brain and means they are more likely to have successful lives.

They found that the more plausible the lie, the more quick witted they will be in later years and the better their abiliy to think on their feet.

It also means that they have developed "executive function" - the ability to invent a convincing lie by keeping the truth at the back of their mind.

“Parents should not be alarmed if their child tells a fib,” said Dr Kang Lee, director of the Institute of Child Study at Toronto Universit who carried out the research.

“Almost all children lie. Those who have better cognitive development lie better because they can cover up their tracks. They may make bankers in later life.” ...

I love that crack about bankers
