[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 324708, member: 6546"] Good morning, All-- I didn't want to hi-jack anyone else's thread, but YIKES the lying with our difficult children is so out of control and so constant...and there seems to be no explanation for it (at least as far as I know....) Now SOME lying I understand. It makes perfect sense to me that a child would lie to try and avoid trouble. As in: [I]Who broke the cookie jar? Not me!![/I] This kind of lying I understand...and heck, we've probably all done it at one time or another. It's this difficult child version of lying--the bizarre, outlandish stories. And most of the time, there seems to be no rhyme or reason for the story-telling. Sometimes it is an attention-seeking behavior--but usually....I don't know [I]what[/I] it is supposed to be. I swear these kids will try and convince us the sky is purple, just for the heck of it. So what is your theory? Have you ever been able to come up with any explanation? --DaisyFace [/QUOTE]
