What Makes People Cheat ??

WebMD;"Are you a cheater? You may not think so. Sure, you may not be perfect, but you probably consider yourself a reasonably honest citizen. But think harder. In high school or college,Ever padded your resume with a misleading or outright false job description? Have you taken an extra deduction or two on your taxes,maybe writing off a dinner with friends as a business expense? Do you really pay for that deluxe cable line-up, or is your hook-up not quite legit? If you're guilty of any of these sins, you're not alone.If cheating is more common, the question is, why are we more likely to cheat than previous generations? And what does cheating do to us? How does it harm our society, our families, and ourselves?"
You may ask why did I post this?.. Well because of all the lieing going on in the News-Today... I don't understand a lot of whats happening in the world today, anymore the next person does, but I remember when growing up you just didn't think about telling a lie unless it was going to save you from a-butt whipping, then you prayed they never would find out. But today people roll a lie off their tongues like its nothing. It's sad ..we need all to start a change to this some-where, they only place I know is in your own homes. I tell my children I would rather know the truth and be a little mad, then to know they didn't have enough faith in me to tell me the truth. I also tell others I don't care if it hurts my feelings, at least... I know how they really feel. So-this is what I'm trying to doing in my life to change things. What do you do and how do you handle it when it happens to you? Leave me a comment and tell me what you do, or how you feel about this article.
