Today, it was my little girl's birthday and her grandparents came over to celebrate. One of the presents from her grandparents turned out to be a sweater. She then asked, "Mommy, may I please lie?" When I shook my head no, she exclaimed, "I hate this ugly sweater!" FML

Today, I received a package at work. Thinking it was something I ordered, I opened it in front of my coworkers. It was a gift from my grandmother: a giant pink, “I Love My Grandson” T-shirt. The worst part? They insisted I put it on and take a picture to send to her. FML

Today, my mother had a full-on hissy fit because of the clothes I was wearing. Not because she thought they were inappropriate, but because I was "stealing her look." FML

Once she asked your permission to lie, you were up a creek no matter your response. I guess it's time to teach her the value of the Little White Lie.

well actually she didn't really mean she hated it. she said "can I lie" and when you said no she said "I hate this sweater" so she pretty much said she liked it. she didn't want to lie? so she said she hated it.

Well I dnt think you really deserve it... but when it comes to your kid and he raises this kind of question, it's better to ask him the reason why he would like to do so. Then explain to him why is can do so or he cannot do so. We do need a lot of patience with kids.

To be fair, you've done very well to raise a child that not only asks your permission to do something that you have taught her to know that it is wrong, but she also asks it in the correct manner. You should be proud that your little girl is so well spoken.
