8 year old girl given Botox....

And the child in the story? Was she part of the lie, too?

WTF.

Indeed...what is more damaging to the child, injecting her with Botox, or teaching her to lie?

Some people should never become parents.

Kids don't need to be taught to lie, they come up with it the first time they do something they shouldn't and are afraid to admit it.

But teaching them that lying is a good way to make money...
(well, of course, by the time you're a voter, if you haven't caught on that all political men are liars, you're uncommonly idealistic)

I should have qualified that...teaching them that lying is fine.

Side note ... It's an understandable self defence mechanism .. more power to them for trying it out, I always think.
