Honesty can sometimes get you out of trouble. Sometimes you want to tell a untrue story because you don't want to hurt someone or get in trouble. This week in school we learned that honesty is the best thing that can get you out of trouble. If you are honest and somebody ask you what happened do not tell a lie. If you tell a lie you can get into trouble if they find out what really happened.
Example of not being honest
Pretend I stole $10 from my dad and he asked me what happened to hi $10.00 and I say that my sister took it or my mom took it and I knew that I took it, that would be a lie. When my dad finds out (because he will) I will get into a lot of trouble and my allowance will be gone for two weeks.
Example of being honest.
If my dad asked me who took the $10.00 and I said that I did it because wanted to buy a toy then that will be the truth and I was honest. I was wrong but I was still honest about who took the money and why. I still may get in trouble because is bad but I may not get into a lot of trouble because I told the truth.
Do you have an example of honesty?
