If you will leave my hand in a super market, a boogie man will come grab you. Children go crazy when they go to super market with their mother. Imagine a scenario in which a child is running after candies and his/her mother is running after vegetables in the opposite direction. So, this lie is the only way a mother can prevent it from happening.
I didn’t bring money with me. Children are good manipulators and they dream of candies and ice cream day and night but things like these can destroy children’s teeth.

If you don’t behave, the angry lady over there will take you along with you. Whenever mothers take their children to a social gathering, they always start screaming and shouting and there is nothing in this planet that can prevent this from happening so, any angry lady can do the task of a boogie man in a gathering.
I don’t have the money right now; we can buy it next time. Although the text time never comes but this is the only way mothers can talk their way out.
