Children and Lying

Not that Niquo Joe is talking or anything, but I learned an interesting fact that I think is worth sharing.  And since all 2 readers of NiquoJoe.com have children, I thought this is a suiting forum to share.
I recently learned that children really don't understand the difference between telling a lie and just saying what comes to mind (which may very well may be strongly affected by their desire not to be in trouble, but nonetheless)...
I saw it on a morning show that I don't remember the name of, but when I see it again I'll edit this post to add it.  But, I did find an interesting (enough) article for your linking pleasure.  Other than that, Google it.  I think it's important to understand not to be worried or disappointed in our kids if/when they say something that isn't true.
For instance, if your young child does something wrong and blames it on another child, they're probably speaking to how they FEEL or what they WISH had happened more than the fact they're being deceiving.
