If you do a sequel to this story, i hope we have more Tom and Linda interactions. Especially since with her it seems he lies because he doesn't want to hurt her feelings and even though she'd prefer he told the truth, i kinda hope she still understands that Tom just doesn't want to see her sad or upset. I mean, being told that her cooking is bad after taking the time to make would still hurt in this world, especially since she knows they are telling the truth.
Honestly, i kinda imagine that Tom's first lie was probably brought upon because he told a truth that made his mother sad. Might explain why she's more lenient on him compared to Alaina, who is said to share their mother's beliefs, but is far more strict and less forgiving than Linda. Linda also seems to have more patience with Tom than her husband/his father, at least going by what little we learned of him.
Plus, imagine that the lying started before he found out he liked being shrunked and punished.

I almost feel bad that you're clearly investing more pathos in their parental relationship than I was to a certain extent. You're right that Tom actually did want to avoid hurt feelings there, but in part, as with every lie he tells, it just comes out, either as a compulsion or some baser biological need to do so. We may learn in the sequel how Tom's chain of lies was precipitated. Odds are, it wasn't just one event, but we'll see. But you're right that Linda has, by the standards of this world, a great deal of patience with him.
I do definitely intend to do a sequel to this, it's more just a question of either finishing or reaching checkpoints on either ongoing stories first.

I do like how different each of your mother/son parings are.
Author's Response:
Thanks! I try to vary them all somewhat.

Wow, this chapter was fun! I ate oatmeal of my mother's toes. It may sound disgusting, but trust me, it could be a lot worse. (Ok, that was a lie. How tall am I?)
My mom thinks that this will help me stop lying. Nope. I enjoy her feet much more than she thinks. Only the heat radiating from her slipper kinda bugs me. Oh, and the smell, but I get used to that.
Next up, you guys will meet my siblings, yes the truth tellers that I'm kind of jealous of. Sure, they are normal sized, but I bet it sucks to have to tell the truth all the time. Sometimes, I use that to my advantage and demand them to tell the truth. One problem. I'm not exactly the smartest of individuals and most of the time, they outsmart me.
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this tale about me, because we are just getting started!
I can't wait for the next chapter!

If you're planning to review any future chapters in this first person style, you'll find yourself saying some very peculiar things about yourself.

interesting story idea. Looking forward! Is it your 1st story with nano size by the way?
Author's Response:
I've used nano size in other stories, but not often.

Great start! I hope to see some boob action. Hopefully, Tom will soon find himself trapped in the bra of a large-breasted giantess.
Author's Response:
It's definitely possible.
