    no thats the point. I genuinely think you might be unlucky enough that this lie stays with the kid for too long. might even reject other classmates attempts at clearing it out because your kid trusts you. Also critical thinking involves dividing facts from fiction, and you dont teach this by telling fiction. If thats a white lie i dont wanna see your actual lies.

    It will be pretty obvious that you did this out of self interest. If you wanna teach your kid to lie themselves out of putting any effort, this is the way to do it. Its the only conclusion for your child that critical thinking will bring. No one will trust your kid to do any work, this means it will have to fend for itself. There will definitely corrective info from classmates, teachers, but by that time the damage is already done, and the only lesson that remains will be that your dad/mom is a terrible human beeing.
