One time I gave my two-year-old sister lemon juice instead of apple juice because I wanted to laugh at her.

That sound like that would've really sucked to be on the other end of prank.

In monopoly I have deceived my cousins into a trade that seems good for them but is actually a way better deal for me.

The only time I can think of is when I was playing a board game with my family when I tricked them into believing the objects in the game was the ones to help you win but in reality it helped me win more than it helped them.

I have used deception in wrestling before, I've done this by making it seem like I'm going for one move just to set up an entirely different move on them.

I cannot think of a time where I have used deception to get what I want in a conversation or other social situations. But one way that I have used deception is in wrestling. This is because you have to deceive your opponent at times when trying to set up a take-down or when you are going for one pining combo so you may try a different one to open up the one you were trying originally.

When my dad said he was going to beat me last night if I didn't do my part of the dishes. I was then stuck doing the dishes while my dad sat down and watched tv.

I've used deception when talking to others when asked my opinion, like if I didn't like the food someone made I would still say I loved it, even if I hated it. Or I would still say someones outfit is cute, even if I think it isn't/ I wouldn't wear it

I use deception a lot at home to stay out of trouble, such as making it look like I'm doing my homework but really I'm playing games, or by putting on my poker face and tell a blatant lie, but they don't know I'm lying.

When I get in a heated conversation with my parents, if I say anything else they threaten to start taking my goods away if I say anything else so normally i'm smart enough most of the time to let whatever it is go even if I know i'm right.

Social meadia accounts are full of deception. They are all about the perfect parts of life making people look at eachother and think there life isn't enough. But your life isn't comparable to the fake and photoshopped lives that people portray they have online. Life is real, real isn't perfect.

One day my dad said that I needed to come and work with him and he said it would only last a couple hours and that it wasn't going to be that cold also. This was deceiving because i ended up having to work all day and it was very cold.

My dad told me that we would be going for a quick little hike up to a lake when I was 8, and we ended up trekking up and down a mountain for 7 hours in each direction.

I use deception when charging people for homework and assignment answers. For example, I'll tell them that the price is fifteen dollars with an interest rate of 10% every day that the payment is late. Then I'll make a fake money calculation that amounts to, for example, $3.00 per day in interest, when indeed, the interest rate is only $1.50 per day. This method of deception is very efficient because the extra cash starts to add up. I like to call it the Car Dealer Method.

One time when I was 14 I told the waiter it was my birthday at Olive Garden so I could get donuts. They were delicious but then I felt guilty because my birthday wasn't for a week and they had no idea.

I fell victim to deception whilst playing this game called Secret Hitler. I knew the game would involve lying but I thought I had chosen my allies correctly, but alas, I was mistaken and this caused us to lose the game. I felt anger, spite, and hurt all at once. I dislike this game now.

When I was 6 my aunt gave me and David two matching envelopes for Christmas very early, we were both so curious that a week before Christmas we opened ours and found a crispy 20 dollar bill in both. We were young and couldn't wait to spend the money so we took them. My mom was suspicious about how we got the money. We concocted the ingenious plan to go into the church bathroom and I would say I found it, in the spirit of christmas I would give half of it to david. My mom was so proud of me though so she tells the story every christmas

My sister's used to offer me money, like coins, and would say there is more coins here, and would take my money, usually 1 to 5 dollars. And I really didn't appreciate that. Also, everytime someone plays a banker in a game, they deceive you and other people by cheating and hoarding cash for themselves while giving everyone else nothing.

When I started eating gluten free, someone brought cookies to play practice. Both my parents denied my right to a cookie, so I went in the kitchen and ate it as fast as humanly possible, and crouched behind the counters. Kennedi found me, and I pleaded with her not to tell my mother.

I was deceived when I first met Sean. My made himself seem really cool. He was tricking me though. It wasn't until later I found out how much cooler, and awesome he really was. I don't know why Sean deceived me so. How did he benefit from such concealment?

In monopoly I have deceived my cousins into a trade that seems good for them but is actually a way better deal for me. I still do this with whoever play board games with me because I am competitive. By deceiving those that play board games with me, it makes them unsure about their own decisions and eventually makes the deal with me.
