When a toddler lies, it’s not a personal slight or a sign of poor character. Instead, it’s a common step in their developmental process. From wishful thinking to pretend play, toddlers’ big imaginations often blur the boundaries between fantasy and reality. Dr. Cathryn delves deeper to interpret the innocence behind these “lies” and imparts strategies for parents to respond to these instances with abundant understanding, a big heart, and clear direction.
