In this episode, we’re exploring why kids lie and what to do about it. This is something that I know concerns a lot of parents. I hear about it from folks in my membership, private coaching and in my Facebook group.

What do we do when kids lie? And why do they lie?

We cover:

Some research about child development and lying

The four main reasons why little kids lie

Why leading with empathy helps your child not lie
How to ask questions in a way that won’t get a lie as an answer
The reasons why bigger kids lie
Tips to build strong relationships with our kids so they feel safe telling us the truth
