[quote=Anonymous]Ignore PP, it's obviously not about the vaseline. I remember doing this at the same age, and my own DS-8 does the same sometimes. I usually will make a quiet statement demonstrating the facts "I noticed that the vaseline was downstairs last night, not in the bathroom. Did you use a different vaseline jar last night? [DD lies and says yes] Oh. Interesting." With a long knowing look. I have always told my son that I see everything, so I try not to make a big deal about calling him out on small lies. I'll find a way to let him know I'm onto him without confrontation. I think there's something about this age where they try to push boundaries and see what they can get away with. Not all matters are worth pursuing with a heavy hand.[/quote]
