They talked it over and  32  decided to simply ask her what she had said. By now，the girl knew she had  33  the word. But instead of lying，she told the truth that she had said the  34  letter.

So if we want them to  49  to be honest，we must show them the way by being honest ourselves. Remember，our kids are  50  what we do and how we live even when we don't think they see or know.
