Scientists and researchers are forever looking into things which many people would say are obvious.
The latest such study was carried out by the Institute of Child Study in Toronto University who have discovered that almost all children lie and that those that do often reach the top of the pile.
Researchers tested 1,200 children aged two to sixteen and found that the most deceitful age was twelve when almost every child tells lies. From this, they deduce that children who learn to lie at an early age have better developed brains, marking them out as potential executives and leaders.
Any parent could have told them that children lie, but whether that marks them out as potential executives and leaders from a study of just 1,200 is a step too far in my view.
Maybe, it marks some of them out as future criminals and con artists!
