How would you react if you found out that a child in your family is lying?

  • I would try to understand why it did that.
  • I would strongly explain to him/her that lying is not acceptable.
  • I would give him/her time to admit the truth on their own.
  • I would use a specific example to illustrate the consequences of lying.
  • I would consider whether something in the family is creating pressure to lie.
