It is a humiliating thing to reveal this secret. At the age of 4-5, I used to have the bad habit of picking my nose. My parents repeated the lie to me, but it did help me get rid of the bad habit. Did your parents tell any lies in order to help you get rid of some bad habits? Did the lies work? " Pick your nose and your brain will fall out"
