Honesty, the Best Policy
Children need to learn that benefiting from manipulating
or lying to others is dishonest and unworthy of them.
What to do
1. Tell the story about the boy who cried "Wolf!" so many
times to get attention that when the wolf finally came, no
one believed him.
2. Ask your child if anyone has ever lied to her. How did
that make her feel?
3. Be careful to follow through on things you say to your
child. Commitments that may seem minor to you can mean a
lot to your child. Make promises and keep them.
Our children need to learn about the importance of
trusting each other in our everyday lives. Without honesty,
trust becomes impossible.
