All teens lie, right? Teen lying is something that is done harmlessly and viciously. Teens lie for many reasons; most of them have to do with their ability to do it. Pulling a fast one over on mom and dad is something you probably tried too. But, in today's world, lying teens can get into a whole lot more trouble than you could. That is what makes it so important to know if your teen is lying to you and then to handle it.
Teens lie that their homework is done. They lie that they are fine when they may be dealing with heavy amounts of stress. They lie because they want to do something you are saying no to. They lie and they lie. Yet, what should you do if you think that your child is doing this?
Here are some things to think about.
What makes you think they are lying? If you accuse them of lying to you, they will never fess up to it. Instead, they may try to cover it up and they may get away with it. Instead of accusing them, sit them down and talk to them about it. Really, you just need to talk about it without yelling and accusations to make the problems less important.
Teens lying may be built onto something. They may want to impress you with where they are in their lives. They may not want to disappoint you either. Make sure that you are not pumping them up so much so that they feel they have to lie to you.
The lying teen may be covering up trouble. Know your teen and recognize the symptoms of other problems. Talk with them about things like drugs, alcohol and sex. Talk with them about how to react to these situations. Spot when you think there is a problem and work it out then.
While all teens lie from time to time, those that make it a habit may be covering up something that is much bigger. It is up to you to handle this now, before the teens lying gets them into huge amounts of trouble.

I leave a response each time I like a article on a site or I have something to add to the
discussion. Usually it's triggered by the passion communicated in the post I looked at. And on this article "Is My Teen Lying?". I was excited enough to post a comment ;-) I actually do have a couple of questions for you if it's allright.
Could it be only me or do a few of the responses look as if
they are written by brain dead people? :-P And, if you are posting at other sites, I'd like to follow you. Would you list every one of your communal pages like your Facebook page, twitter feed, or linkedin profile?

I'm impressed, I have to admit. Seldom do I encounter a blog that's equally educative and interesting, and let me tell you,
you've hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that too few men and women are speaking intelligently about. I am very happy that I stumbled across this during my hunt for something relating to this.
