Parents are confused by children's lies. After the liar is exposed, he is asked: from whom did the child learn this?
According to experts, before starting to blame society, the street and television for everything, parents should take a closer look at their own habits and behavior.
According to foreign psychologists, everything starts in the family.
Mistake one
Children often resort to lying out of fear of being punished or upsetting their parents.
It is necessary to calmly discuss the situation and explain to the child that lying can lead to a much more severe punishment than some other misconduct.
Mistake two
Lack of attention to a child also teaches him to tell lies.
At first he hides some small things, but then the lies become more extensive as the child becomes convinced of impunity.
Mistake three
If parental education does not go beyond threats.
Instead of eliminating the root of the problem, parents sometimes frighten with consequences, but usually do not reach the point of punishment.
Mistake number four
A child begins to lie when he does not feel supported by his parents.
It is obvious that parents and children have not been able to find a common language for a long time.
Mistake number five
One must never forget about personal example.
If parents make promises but do not keep their word, deceive the child or each other, then there is no point in expecting different behavior from children.
