Subtle Shifts with Jennifer Delliquadri

141. Why Teenagers Lie and What Parents Can Do


Listen Later

Today’s episode delves into a common teenage behavior: lying. As parents, understanding why teens lie and how to respond effectively is crucial. 

I’ll explore the underlying reasons behind teen dishonesty, including seeking independence, immature brain development, and avoiding conflict. Plus, I’ll provide practical strategies to foster open communication, build trust, and address issues without resorting to harsh punishments.

Key topics include:

  • Common reasons teenagers lie and what they lie about.
  • How to know if your teen is lying.
  • How to keep lying to a minimum and what to do when you catch your teenager in a lie.
