Tell about a time when you lied to your parents, boss, or teacher.

Once when I was younger, maybe around 4 or 5 years old. I wanted a donut really bad. I asked my father and he said no because I had not yet eaten dinner. When he wasn't looking, I stole the donut bag and ate a bunch of donuts. After noticing they were missing my father confronted me about it. I lied to him and told him that I had not touched the donuts. He knew I was lying and I was punished. I learned my lesson and now know that it's wrong to steal food and be dishonest about it.
