[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 393630"] Bean I have a hard time with this too.... I still want to believe my difficult child will listen to me! I think the question you need to ask yourself, is does confronting her about the lies do any good? Does it do any harm? I know in our case it didn't do any good.... and I think in some way it gave him one more lie to tell and it perpetuated the myth or idea that he could lie to me and I would believe him or at least he would get away with it. Because what can you say when they absolutely won't admit something and say they didn't do it? It really gets you no where. [/QUOTE]
