How to wean us to lie to a child. Tips for parents

Sometimes it happens that parents notice a lie in talking with the child. But is it worth it to panic right away? What is the qualification of a lie? Children's lies are divided into several types.

What are the causes of the child's lies?
There are several of them. If a child is brought up in excessive severity, then he will certainly hide his misdeeds, fearing severe punishment. Sometimes it's worse: shifting the blame to other people. Being already in adulthood, this person can easily slander another person.

Sometimes the kids lie, so as not to upset their favorite parents. This situation often arises where adults "play on the feelings" of the baby, manipulate his emotions.

Parents, whose children are able to come up with incredible and non-existent stories about their family, must always think about. Perhaps a child grows with inferiority complexes. Later, he will be embarrassed by his relatives. The reasons can be different: poverty, ignorance or the origin of parents. Therefore, the desire of the child to impersonate another should immediately alert the parents.

And if a child lies to spite, it is already a serious and psychological problem. It can develop into a disease. And then, perhaps, your child will have an unreliable reputation or become a sociopath.

What to do? How to fight?
If a child is very afraid of punishment and lies only out of fear, then think about whether you do not overdo the stick. After all, you can grow a coward, a frightened loser or a weak, depressed person. In later life, he will not be able to take responsibility for his actions and will not even be able to recognize them.

If the kid begins to embellish the existing reality, thinks up unrealistic life's blessings, then try to teach him to appreciate what is at the moment. Very competently and thoughtfully review your attitude and attitude of others around the child. And if it is not prosperous, then start with yourself immediately. Create a favorable and benevolent atmosphere in the relationship with the child and in the house.

If your kid is a dreamer and lies to his own pleasure, he can hide in his soul great creativity. Direct all his energy in the right direction. Buy a beautiful notebook for recording and drawing dreams and fantasies. Let him draw his fantasies for you. And suddenly he will be a famous writer or artist? Everything is possible!

If your child's lie is connected with aggression, he often goes into some imaginary reality, then give him more time, patience. And, of course, go to a consultation with a psychologist. It is possible that this is not just a child's imagination, but the manifestation of the first signs of a psychological disorder. It has long been known that the child acquires all mental illnesses, as well as unhappy fates, as a child. And the sooner parents notice this, the more likely they will be to correct the shortcomings in the upbringing of their child and even protect him from a dangerous disease.
