Dealing With a Child's Lies

[1]1. Treat it seriously. It originates with Satan.

2. Be honest yourself. Your kids can catch you in a lie too.

3. Remind children that lying is deceiving self (and can become a dangerous snare as they grow older).

4. Assure them of your love and forgiveness of their sin.

5. Teach them to confess their sin to God.
