Parents should not expect their child to always tell the truth.
Sooner or later, all mothers and fathers encounter children's lies.
If the problem makes itself known very often, then parents should not scold the child and punish him.
First, you need to figure out what exactly makes the baby lie. By understanding the reason for the child's lies, the mother and father will be able to correct the situation.
The child fantasizes
Perhaps it is not so much a lie as a fantasy.
It is possible that the child imagines himself as a hero of a fairy tale or cartoon.
In this case, there is no reason to worry. The main thing is that the child does not get too immersed in the role.
The child is afraid of punishment
A schoolboy broke a vase but doesn't want to admit it? Perhaps he's simply afraid of being punished.
In such a situation, parents need to think: are they being too strict with their child?
The child does not want to upset his parents
It is possible that the child is worried about mom and dad, and therefore hides this or that unpleasant fact from them.
In such a situation, lying is an expression of concern, albeit a specific one.
The baby takes an example from his parents
Perhaps the child once heard his parents tell someone a lie.
Children often come to the conclusion that “this is how it should be done.”
The child wants to assert himself
It is possible that the little liar is trying to manipulate people.
Of course, parents should explain to their child that this is not the right thing to do.
