It depends on the lie. Stuff like Santa, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy don't count. Some other things can be negotiable. I agree that not all parents DESERVE respect and honor just because they happened to procreate. I believe that parents need to earn their respect, it should not simply be mandatory because there are some truly awful people who call themselves parents out there.
The Bible says a child should honor his parents so that he may live a long life. The first commandment with a promise. Of course as soon as we break it, then the promise doesn't apply.
The best way is by example.
Their rights start where the parents' rights begin. If the parents are actively parenting, the child is thriving and nothing illegal is going on, then the grandparents are honor bound to support, not supplant, the parents. If the parents are out of the picture, the grandparents can certainly apply to become guardians of the child.
Only if the courts found such an agreement to be in the child's best interest.
Be nice to your parents.
Generally, a child honors his/her parents by obeying their rules and acting appropriately in the community to represent their parents appropraitely. To bring honor to one's parents, one must do what they are instructed to do unless it violates God's commands. The above is correct, but also if we do not obey and honor our parents whom we can see, how are we going to honor and obey God whom we can't see. Jesus made a comparison something like this when he was here. The above is also correct. Just wanted to add that if you want to honor your parents, follow their rules, and respect their answer the first time. Don't go behind their back, especially by doing something you wouldn't do if your parent was standing right there.

Her Child's Honor - 1911 was released on: USA: 27 March 1911
The Fifth Commandment is, "Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you." You should honor, trust, and obey your parents for they are here to bring you closer to God and His word. God has entrusted them to care for you and your wellbeing. All God does is for a reason, and his purpose for putting you with your parents is His own. You should stand up for your parents and show them honor and live in their name just as you live in God's. Only through this can one become a "Child of God."

Mainly to protect you.
Sometimes parents must tell a small lie to get through. For example the child wants to go to Toys R Us and you have no money to do so. You can't go to browse because you know the kids will beg to get toys. So you tell a white lie that Toys R Us is closed. Telling lies is the wrong thing to do yet can be alright at the appropriate times.
