Or maybe because sometimes they don't want to make their parents mad or sad .. so they lie :)active toddlerhttp://www.dinikusuma.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20957385.post-82355618841710113752008-06-26T19:56:00.000-07:002008-06-26T19:56:00.000-07:00ahh yes, the lies. they are new in our household,...ahh yes, the lies. they are new in our household, and younger sister caught on as well (she's only three and can't lie very well!). lying is something that i just can't stand. it's a well known fact in our household that i never lie. my kids know that when i say i'm going to do something i do it, when i say i won't, i don't. there are no surprises, they know in advance if they are going to get a needle at the doctors, i don't lie if we hire a sitter after they fall asleep...you get the idea. so when my kids lie to me i am so disappointed and honestly, i'm angry too. if they lie the discipline is all about the lie and not whatever they did...they are always punished for lying. last week my daughter wasn't allowed to swim in the pool until after lunch (this is a huge punishment) because she didn't fess up to something she did....she never got punished for what she did wrong. i have no idea if this is right or wrong, but it's getting the point across.Betsy Maehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02498274247502373134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20957385.post-47342178416113948752008-06-26T14:04:00.000-07:002008-06-26T14:04:00.000-07:00Hmmm...I think you handled it well. Maybe explain ...Hmmm...I think you handled it well. Maybe explain to her also why she needs to tell the truth, so that people will believe that what she says is true. Yes, every kid does it...but still, we want to nip it in the bud!Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00604713846429464708noreply@blogger.com
