Lie and succeed

Reinforcing what we all knew for so long, BBC has reported that a new study in Canada that suggests that toddlers who tell lies early on are more likely to do well later in life.The complex brain processes involved in formulating a lie are an indicator of a child's early intelligence. Their children are not going to turn out to be pathological liars. Almost all children lie. It is a sign that they have reached a new developmental milestone. Those who have better cognitive development lie because they can cover up their tracks. This was because they had developed the ability to carry out a complex juggling act which involves keeping the truth at the back of their brains. A researcher added: "They even make bankers in later life."
