How my parents lied to me

@lisaansell my parents lied to me (in that manner) twice when I was little. Once when I was growing carrots, my mum bought some from the shop and buried them for me to harvest. Once when they took our cat back to a shelter bcos he kept running away for weeks and returning with fleas, they said he must have ran away for good. I think the first was lovely and sweet, the second I'm not sure about but obviously they didn't want me to be upset with them for taking him back.
