Children are taught how to count, to read, to tie their shoelaces. They learn to develop the abilities they need to be happy, active, and well-adjusted adults. Honesty is one of those behaviors. It forms the basis of trust in our relationships. Learning how to be honest and communicate in a respectful, kind, and truthful manner is an important skill we need to teach our children.
In her new book, The Truth About Lying: Teaching Honesty to Children at Every Age and Stage, Dr. Talwar shares what she has learned about teaching children about honesty, how to deal with children鈥檚 dishonesty, and how to develop a close relationship based on open and truthful communication.
