Sugarcoating Causes Cavities

Telling people what they like to hear instead of the truth can create damaging misconceptions.

To avoid hurting other people’s feelings, we often turn a blind eye and do not bring to their attention situations that are detrimental to them.  In most cases, the issues are minor and will have no lasting negative impact.  However, a pattern of many small issues or a few larger issues that go uncorrected can have a long-term impact.  Helping others understand your perception of a situation and, in turn, being willing to accept input from others helps us grow.
