Then why we are lying everyday? we can categorize motives for lying.
1)To avoid being punished. This is the most frequently mentioned motive by either children or adults. The punishment may be for a misdeed or for an accidental mistake.
2) To obtain a reward not otherwise readily obtainable. This is the second most commonly mentioned motive, by both children and adults.
3) To protect another person from being punished.
4) To protect oneself from the threat of physical harm. This is different from being punished, for a threat of harm is not for a misdeed. An example would be a child who is home alone telling a stranger at the door that his father is asleep now, and to come back later.
5) To win the admiration of others.
6) To get out of an awkward social situation. Examples are claiming to have a babysitter problem to get out of a dull party, or ending a telephone conversation by saying there is someone at the door.
7) To avoid embarrassment. The child who claims the wet seat resulted from water spilling, not from wetting her pants, is an example if the child did not fear punishment, only embarrassment.
8) To maintain privacy, without giving notification of the intention to maintain some information as private.
9) To exercise power over others, by controlling the information the target has.

As I mentioned before, In the view of evolutionary psychology, lie is the instinct of human created by evolving. Lying became acclimatized, society became the world where people compete to detect liar and to lie. Therefore, we can be a person deceived or a cheater. Sometimes we can not realize that we are lying and deceiving ourselves and them. For example, when children have not finished their homework, they said they did not it because it was too difficult to solve. However, this situation can be explained with the message that children are deceiving themselves by thinking they can not finish it because they did not have ability to process.
