the research on court cases shows about 2% of children are lying or making it up, meaning 98% of children are telling the truth
It is interesting too that 2% is about the proportion of any crime statistic that represents "the making it up factor" whether due to fraud, attention-seeking, vindictiveness or whatever. But the stereotype is fostered that women and children are more likely to lie about sex crimes instead people having a more general awareness that (lying being a non-sex and non-age specific behavior) a certain small proportion of all types of people lie about being crime victims.
