Netizen's Comment: You wrote something about telling the truth and telling a lie. In real life are there circumstances wherein lying can be considered morally acceptable than telling the truth?
When you are being introduced to the children of a friend, a long-lost relative, or even new acquaintances - well the child is not at all pleasing let alone pleasant to the eyes ... he is that kind of son or daughter only his mother will love. Well, this is not the time to be candid and blunt by being truthful and giving an unsolicited honest opinion about how one looks. If you feel you are going to puke for being insincere by saying, "Oh what a doll ... cool down that contrite heart, focus on other areas and say "I like her straight hair ..." or say " what piercing brown eyes."
Stay away from commenting on his knock-knees, or his flat nose. Abstain from pointing out the child's oval and half-moon facial features. And desist from interfering with the child's squinting eyes. It is not lying if the moon's gravitational force is egging you to say something about the child's unkempt hair ... but it is rude and impolite to openly castigate the appearance of somebody's one and only child.
Besides, you looked like that yourself once, too- and look how well you turned out....
