[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 393771, member: 3907"] My difficult child is a liar extraordinaire as well, to the point that I don't ever believe a word he says unless I have independent corroboration that hasn't been skewed or influenced by him. If it turns out after the fact that he was indeed telling the truth for once and I didn't believe him, I figure that this is the natural consequence of his lying. I don't feel guilt nor do I feel the need to apologize. I just explain to him that this is the result of his breaking my trust so many times. He can be angry about it, but he really should be angry at himself for breaking my trust, rather than angry at me for not trusting. [/QUOTE]
