[QUOTE="busywend, post: 305849, member: 391"] Well, it does not seem like punishing him will accomplish the goal of teaching him that lying is bad. What if you came up with a different idea to try to express that lying breaks trust. I know he is young. But, maybe something like this. you: Carlos, what would you like for dinner? him: spaghetti you: I don't know if I believe that you want spaghetti because you lie all the time. I guess I will make meatloaf. That may be an exaggerated example but there will come times during the day when you can express the lack of trust because of the lying. You know him better than me, is he capable of connecting those dots? [/QUOTE]
