Why Kids Lie and How to Encourage Honest Conversations
No Description
Lying is a common behavior in young children, especially as they begin to explore their imagination and test boundaries. In this episode, I share insights on why kids lie, including developmental stages and emotional motivations. Teach how to respond with empathy, encourage honesty, and create a safe space for your child to tell the truth. Whether your child is exaggerating a story or avoiding consequences, discover practical strategies for building trust and fostering open communication in your family.
