Many people think that it is bad to lie. You begin to tell a lie and the situation becomes more confused. At the end people learn the truth. Your lie can hurt a person more than the truth. In some situation it is better to tell the truth to face. Of course we are afraid of it. But in the end we see that it was the best way. But there are some situations when we can't say the truth. When a person is ill and the truth can kill him. You have to lie. So telling a lie is bad but sometimes it is white lie.
white lie-ложь во спасение
