[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. Thank you. Now reading about therapeutic lies.[/quote] This is not a therapeutic lie. This is withholding a diagnosis from someone because you are afraid how they will handle it. A therapeutic lie is when my dad would tell me how he spoke on the phone with his brother that day and I wouldn't remind him his brother wasn't alive. Or he'd talk about my brother visiting that day and I wouldn't correct him that it had been a couple weeks ago that the visit occurred. [/quote]
