That's kicker behind this whole story. Society now rewards children for lying (via their parents.)
Six-year-olds are pretty crafty these days and I'm quite certain the little girl knew perfectly well about the scheme to lie.

Kids may lie about who ate the last cookie, butI don’t believe a child of this age had the craftiness to know that this story would make it easier for her to win tickets. The blame lays squarely upon the shoulders of ther “mother”.
