Teaching Young Children about Honesty

I came across something - which in my opinion – is an excellent way to get the concept of honesty instilled in a young child : a mom explained to her young son that there are fine, invisible threads between their hearts. Every time he lies to her one of those threads get cut until there are none left and their [...]

Modelling honesty

What parents do in moderation children do in excess. If you as a parent model dishonesty to your child he will be sure to follow suit. Parents often lie without realizing it. The following statement may sound familiar: Drink this. It tastes nice, like a sweety?   (In truth it taste like dish-washing liquid) It won’t hurt.   [...]

Confidence and Honesty

One of the biggest motivators for chronic liars are their lack of self-esteem. There are various reasons why a child may have low esteem. Personally I believe that unrealistic expectations can cause a child to feel as if he is only accepted on the grounds of his performance. Many parents have high hopes for a child academically, [...]

The Truth about Unrealistic Expectations

I have to mention the issue of unrealistic expectations. The problem in this issue often lies in the fact that we tend to think that the expectations we have of our kids are not unrealistic. To my shame I must admit that it took me a while – and lots of conflict – to realize that I [...]

Personality types and Chronic lying

Different children have different motivations for lying. In my opinion, personality types play a big role in whether a child will become a chronic liar. This explains  why children from the same family have different ways of handling the truth. In some families, two of the children may not have a problem with lying while another may [...]

Motivation behind Chronic Lying

One of the big motivators behind chronic liars normally is low self-esteem. Chronic liars tend to make up stories of valor and great deeds in order to be the center of attention. These white lies become part of their personality and they do not see a need to get rid of these lies – which they feel [...]

Why Teenagers Lie

Teenagers are a different breed altogether. At this age they realize that the greatest control they have is their control over information. If they view a parent as being too intrusive they will withold information. Questions such as “Where were you?” will be  get a blank reply of  ”Nowhere.” Or “Who was at the party?”….”No [...]

Can a Child be a Pathological Liar?

It is estimated that adult  pathological liar  develop the syndrome around the age of 10 – the same age when they are able to lie convincingly. An article published in the the British Journal of Psychiatry in October 2005 found a significant difference in the brain structure of pathological liars. The frontal cortex of pathological [...]

Pathological vs Compulsive Liars

After researching Pathological liars extensively I have come to a few conclusions. There is not always a clear line between Compulsive lying and Pathological lying. The main difference lies in the aim of the lie. Pathological liars lie to favor themselves with a lie – without regard for the feelings of others. They tend to believe [...]
