Some youths who lie do so to avoid certain consequences that frighten them.  It could be that they perceive they can't get what they want.  We have to reassure those who lie that they are not rejected as persons; only their behaviour is not acceptable.

108: Handling the Liar

Hello and Welcome to “Every Youth Matters”. I’m Dr John Tan. For the past 30 years, I’ve been helping youths realize their life potential. In recent years, though, I’ve helped parents, teachers, counsellors and youth workers engage their teenagers and youths. In this podcast I will share tips, tools and ways to reach what may be that difficult or challenging youth who just would not respond to your best intentions or actions. What can we do to reach and win their hearts? I believe that a youth’s potential is too precious a gift to waste. So join me in this journey, for every youth matters!
