Hmmm, so I think my SS11 lied to me....again. He was hounding my DH last night for some money to buy a toy from a friend. I heard DH tell him to basically stop hounding him. This morning, SS11 wakes up my DD12 early (before her alarm went off) begging her for the money, offering to sell her crap from his room etc. No deal was struck there either. This afternoon, SS11 comes home from school, asks to go to said friend's house to "get something" and returns with the toy. So naturally, I asked where he got the money from. Hesitation and the usual gesticulating with his hands, especially when he's not being truthful. Claims he "found" the money in his wallet from the allowance he "earns" at BM's when he visits her house every other weekend. In a calm voice, I told him that I hoped he was telling the truth and left it at that. I know he's lying. I called DH to let him know about it and he too thought it was strange, the sudden "finding" of money. As far as I'm concerned, I've done my part, told DH and now he can address it later if he so chooses. I refuse to get worked up over SS11 and his constant need for dishonesty. SS11 knows how we feel about lying yet doesn't seem to care, and his parents don't seem to want to correct it, so why should I care?
