Week 4 Journal Writing : It is important to tell the truth and not lie because..

 It is important to tell the truth and not lie because if someone finds out and tells your parents you will be punished. By Meldaan


It is important to be honest and not lie because if you lie people might think it is true when it isn't. lying can become a very bad habit because when you start to lie you will do it again and again. If you lie to another person and the person will spread the news but then yo tell everybody that it is not real. By Evie
It is important to be honest and not lie because if you lie and a teacher already saw you and told your teacher she will already know you're lying. Don't lie anywhere or any time other wise you'll get in trouble.
By Om
It is important not to lie because If you lie you could be in serious trouble so don't lie. If you lie and blame it on someone else then that person will get into trouble and that is not good.
When you are honest you do not get into trouble. I don't like to lie.
