Can You Tell Someone Who's Lying?? (3/19 Sat)

[Katrina]

hello, I am Katrina.

I've joined YOYO for 5 months, and this is my first time to be the host. I prepare an interesting topic for you guys to share your opinions and experience. Hope all of you can enjoy the discussion.

In our society, from the moral viewpoint , lying is obviously not a good behavior. Parents and teachers always teach us to be honest and conscientious. However, Lying is actually a part of our life. It is something we must face or hear everyday. Though we all know that lying is wrong since we were children, as we grow up, we gradually learn the importance, necessity of lying as well as th techenique of lying. Especially when we graduated from school and entered into this crucial world,sometimes we are forced to lie to protect ourselves from getting hurt or getting into trouble. The real world push us to learn how do lie.
Also, sometimes we lie for our own benefits.

So, in session 1, i'd like you to discuss your lying experience.

In session 2,it's time to show your lying skill!
We'll play a game to test everyone's lying ability. Have fun.^^
