Have your parents ever not believed you when you told the truth? (ex. being sick, grades, weird stuff, etc.)

My mom doesn't usually says my hiccups are fake when they aren't...she gets real mad too -.-

Yup, I know how to fake sickness though. What you do is take a tablespoon of flour and mix it with water until it is kinda gooey. Then add water until the flour is kinda floating. Put this in your mouth but don't swallow. Spit it out and then show them the technicolor yawn!

My parents don't believe me when I tell them that I'm not gay. Of course, I can understand why they'd think that I am gay, I just wish they wouldn't.

Good idea, I did something similar once! I got a bag of crushed potato chips, cut-up hot dogs, ketchup and mustard, sugar for texture, and finally some rain water. I mixed it up in a bag and then I poured it in the toilet and showed my mom (cuz she doesn't believe me or my bros if we don't show her). I got to skip a day of school where I had 4 tests

I've honed faking illness to a fine art over the course of my lifetime - it helps that my body seems to respond when I want to look pale or tired or ill. Of course, it problems helps that my parents don't really pay that much attention to me. I told my father I was pregnant once and he believed me... I'm male.

Maybe you're one of those weird people who think they were born as a different gender inside but not on the outside...

WHAT!? That's one way for you to find out gullibility.

I used to fake sick when I hated my first primary school. But as for not being believed for something, it's always been for trivial things like silly arguements with my brothers.

I honestly think my father had forgotten what gender I am - it probably doesn't help that the shortened version of my name is pretty gender ambiguous and I grow my hair long but still...

I hate to break it to you but I think it's time for the operation.

I try not to have any huge lies because my parents are like walking lie detectors with me, it sucks. The worst I do is over exaggerate a sickness or an injury, I could probably pull it off without being sick but I hate having make up work so it balances out.

I hope you're not suggesting I get gender reassignment? That costs a helluva lot of money and they won't allow you to have it unless you pass a number of psychological and physical tests beforehand. I toyed with the idea as something to keep me from being bored during my later life but apparently you have to seriously feel that you're in the wrong-gendered body to your mind so...

My parents didn't believe me when I told them that my brother was messing with me when I was younger. He would just pick on me and things of that sort. And they still don't believe me when I say that my little brother messes up the house and then he blames it on me. That's what I don't like.

Also sometimes I do try to fake illnesses on certain schooldays. Mainly because I'm too tired or didn't finish the work I was assigned.

I hate being sick. I miss so much work and on days where I have lots of tests, it just makes it worse. I never have or will fake being sick.

I used to lie so much when I was little but now I've settled down a bit; I was a bad liar and I sleep better now, anyway. I told too many white lies.

I was a classic case of the boy who cried lies.

I don't lie much. So my perents believe me. What they don't bielieve is when I'm doing something and say "Honey, why are sad?" when I'm not. They just think that I'm sad because of my facial expression. When I say I'm not sad they say "Honey, we know you" and still want me too say why I'm sad.

I've never faked being sick. I have "forgotten" my homework rather a lot, but I stopped doing that. My parents usually believe me, except for that one time when there was this huge thing about someone hiding food under the bathtub (?) and my sister refused to admit that she did it for a week, which made it a heck of a lot worse for her. They also generally don't believe that I'm studying while using a computer.

The only times I lie is by faking sickness (see first page). Plus, my mom always thinks I'm sad when I'm not smiling, even if I'm watching TV or just sitting around. "Zach, why are you so sad?" "I'm not sad, Mom." "Don't give me attitude and don't lie." and so on and so forth.
