69 Encore: Lying, Sneaking, Cheating. What Keeps Kids from Being Honest?

<p>Nobody likes being lied to, especially by our own children. Why do kids lie? Dr. Lisa looks at lying from a developmental standpoint and points out that when a child asks for more privacy, it doesn't necessarily mean they’re doing something sneaky. But when a child does lie, how should a parent respond? Dr. Lisa explains the difference between a child feeling appropriately guilty, and a child being made to feel shame. The bottom line? How you respond to dishonesty can make an important difference in how kids behave. </p><br><p><strong><u>Dr. Lisa’s Resources:</u></strong></p><p>Lisa’s NYT’s column: <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/26/well/family/teens-homework-school.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">How to Help a Teen Out of a Homework Hole</a></p><br><p>Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn <strong>@AskLisaPodcast, @LDamour, @ReenaNinan</strong></p><br><p><strong>Additional resources: </strong></p><p><a href="https://www.drlisadamour.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.drlisadamour.com/</a></p><br><p><strong>Ask Lisa is produced by: </strong></p><p><a href="http://www.goodtroubleproductions.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Www.GoodTroubleProductions.com</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
