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
