Harriet hears a noise in the kitchen and investigates. She finds the cookie jar in pieces on the floor and 5-year-old Willy standing nearby. Harriet knows what happened, but asks Willy anyway. Willy admits that he broke the jar while trying to get cookies. Harriet gives Willy a spanking. Willy is most likely to learn from this experience that .

it doesn't pay to tell the truth.

Explanation:

For everything one does either bad or good there is always a reward for it. When children do good things we tend to encourage them by giving them gifts or something else(maybe hug, or praising them) so that they can continue doing it. But, if t is the other way round, punishment is inevitable.

There is this African proverb that says; " when a child knows that he/she is wrong and pleaded, he/she will spend less time receiving punishment".

When someone do something bad and he or she pleaded guilty, the punishment should be reduced or should just go with a warning.

This is not the case with Harriet and

5-year-old Willy. Despite Willy's truth, he still got punished anyways.
