Posted on October 16, 2025 - Samantha’s dad, Walter, had always been a proud, hardworking man. In his seventies, dementia began to cloud his memory. One afternoon, he asked where his mother was. Samantha froze; her grandmother had been gone for more than forty years. She gently told him the truth. Walter’s face fell, his eyes filled with tears, and for the rest of the day he seemed withdrawn and anxious. That night, Samantha replayed the moment in her mind. She felt awful knowing she had caused her dad to relive such a painful loss. Unsure how to handle it if it happened again, she searched online for answers and came across the term therapeutic fibbing. She realized it wasn’t about tricking someone but protecting them when the truth would cause distress.
