[QUOTE="katya02, post: 324891, member: 2884"] This describes my difficult child to a 'T'. I can definitely say that 'he lies like he breathes' - at least, he did as long as he lived in our house. Since moving out I think he is lying to me less, but I still can't take anything he says at face value. When he was younger I think it was about power - about having control over who had what information. I think he enjoyed it. He also stuck to his lies when caught, past the point of all rationality. Now it's more a matter of knowing that there's a germ of truth at the base of his stories, but the details are up for grabs. He still only shares partial information, omitting important things. To me, that's also a lie because the intent is to mislead. [/QUOTE]
