[QUOTE="Christy, post: 152872, member: 225"] difficult children lie to stay out of trouble. difficult children lie so that we won't be disappointed in them. difficult children lie to avoid a lecture. difficult children lie to get what they want. difficult children lie to get other people in trouble. difficult children lie to get people to like them. difficult children lie because it is often easier than admitting the truth. That being said, lying is not exclusive to difficult children. PCs lie and so do grown-ups from time to time. I understand your frustration and do not at all mean to make light of the situation. You asked him not to do something and he did it anyway, that's frustrating. On the other hand, he was hungry and almonds are a healthy snack. I'm going to do my best Ross Greene impression here and ask, "Was waiting for dinner important enough to endure a meltdown?" Wishing you a better day tomorrow! Christy [/QUOTE]
