Mistakes Happen Honesty is always the best policy. The saying that has been ingrained in people’s minds since childhood claims that telling the truth is always best. Whoever first started the saying understood that lying, or simply not telling the whole truth, has negative consequences. If something as small as telling a little white lie has a negative outcome, how much worse must it be when a mistake is kept hidden? Not admitting mistakes can have a very negative outcome for all of the people involved.
There are many children in the world who are being put behind bars and detained for alleged wrongdoing without protections they are entitled to. Throughout the world, children are charged and sentenced for actions that should not be considered as adult crimes. Here in the United States, the minimum age of criminal responsibility is age 12. Law enforcement officials and those in the juvenile justice system nationwide tend to mistreat underage individuals by trying cases while working through the lens of an adult. Unfair punishments are still handed down domestically, which is in violation of Supreme Court law.

Furthermore, telling the truth could hurt the feelings of people care deeply about. For example, your mother has put her blood, sweat, and tears, not literally, into this new recipe she found online to prepare for dinner what she believes to be the most amazing masterpiece she has ever whipped up.

You gag, but instantly smile at your mother while trying to secretly plug your nose at the same time.
Stephanie Ericsson begins her explorative essay, “The Ways We Lie,” with a personal anecdote of all the lies she fabricated in one day. She told her bank that a deposit was in the mail when it was not, told a client that the traffic had been bad when she was late for other reasons, told her partner that her day was fine when it was really exhausting, and told her friend she was too busy for lunch when she just was not hungry, all in the course of a day. She shifts from talking about herself to talking about everyone, claiming that all people lie, exaggerate, minimize, keep secrets, and tell other lies. But, like herself, most still consider themselves honest people. She describes a week in which she tried to never tell a lie; it was debilitating, she claims.
Lying has not been formally considered morally wrong or right regardless of the severity. Although it’s near impossible to go through a whole day without even stretching the truth once and decide which types of lies are okay or not. Stephanie Ericsson uses strong metaphors and personal experiences in “The Ways We Lie” to justify the use of our everyday lying. This unbiased essay will help readers decide whether it’s okay to lie on a daily basis. Ericsson starts out with saying she told the bank that her deposit was in the mail even though she hadn't written out the check (495).

The presentation is memorized and well rehearsed with no clear improvisation. In her presentation Pamela Meyer claims that on any given day we're lied to from 10 to 200 times, and the clues to identify those lie can be inconspicuous and unreasonable.
