Pg 120: Lying to our children

 

 

When our children developed language, we learned how much we “lie” to our children.  Yes, we lie to our children.

 

“Go to the car, honey, I’ll be there in a minute."

 

“I need to make a quick phone call before I help you."

 

Wow, what an awakening!  We developed carefully worded alternatives to these   common lies.  We believe it made a huge difference in how our children trusted our words.
