How to Encourage Honesty When Kids Lie + "Limit-Setting Workshop" with Dr. Lawrence Cohen
Hey there,
Ever had your kid look you straight in the eye and spin a wild story that was completely untrue?
And then, when the truth comes out—crickets. Zero remorse. Not even a flinch.
My daughter went through a “creative storytelling” phase (let’s call it that), and wow, did it mess with my head. I got hit with the full emotional buffet—confusion, worry, a tiny (okay, not-so-tiny) sense of betrayal... the works.
So what do we do when our kids lie? How do we handle it without spiraling into a full-blown emotional frenzy?
Jessica Graham, a fellow mom from our community, dives into this today. Her take is honest, refreshing, and might just shift how you see lying altogether. (Spoiler: it’s not always a sign your kid is destined for a life of crime.)
