[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 304240, member: 6705"] Shari... I know I wasn't totally a easy child myself... And my friend has a tween female too... And she and I both did/do this. I think it's a way to try and get control over a situation where she feels out of control. Keep something in mind, she needs to have clear, related consequences for the lies. In our home, though it doesn't always work, we have more dire consequences for lying than for messing up or doing something wrong. Mess up? Consequence. Mess up then LIE about it? MUCH BIGGER consequence. Just my $0.02. [/QUOTE]
