[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 156334, member: 3704"] Our difficult child lies frequently. Because he is an adolescent, I have assumed that it is part of his rebellion and need for independence. Many times we can't discern the reason for the lie, it really makes no sense at all. Oddly enough, on the one hand - given his diagnosis of Asperger's I have felt that the lying is a weird sign of health. Most of the literature says Aspies don't lie. I try to keep it in perspective, but I really hate lies. I feel like they destroy trust , which I believe is the cornerstone of relationships. I know I can't trust difficult child, and I haven't for years. husband seems to be able to deal with this much better than I can. This parenting job really makes us all dig deep, doesn't it? [/QUOTE]
