HOW TO TEACH YOUR CHILD TO BE HONEST
When our children are little, lying can seem cute and almost humorous at times. When you ask your two-year-old, “Did you take a chocolate chip cookie?”, she immediately shakes her head, hides the half-eaten cookie behind her back, and says with chocolate-covered lips, “No, Mommy, I didn’t.”
At this age, these little lies somehow seem funny because they’re so obvious. But when you add ten years to seemingly innocent 5-year-old lying, you’ve got a teenager skillful at lying about adolescent behaviors – not completing homework, skipping school, experimenting with drugs, and engaging in sexual relationships.
