No insult taken, so thanks. That had to suck, from an honesty stand point. I'm not going to pass judgement on the rest because I don't know anyone else's life, you know? I've done some less than legal things in the past. (Which, understandably, sounds weird considering I just said I don't like lying. There's some cognitive dissonance there, but I rationalize it by just not getting caught. I would tell the truth if I was caught, though.)
My mom had a habit of breaking promises after she and Dad split up, so I decided honesty was the best policy at a young age. Plus the truth is easier to remember.
