Little Lies are a Big Deal!

Do you lie to your kids? Even those little white lies about the cookies being all gone or the lie that enables you to slip out of their rooms at bedtime teach kids two things: 1. That lying is ok; and 2. That you are not someone they can trust or believe.

If you want to raise honest kids, be courageous and tell your kids the truth, parent with confidence in your limits so you don't have to lie or justify your decisions. If you want to raise honest kids, be an honest parent at all times!

Wishing you balance,
