How to educate children not to lie
When children just talk nonsense in a serious way, such as telling other children that the moon is his good friend, which confuses reality and imagination, parents often don't need to pay attention to it; However, when parents find that their children lie for a purpose, for example, to escape punishment, they should pay attention to it. Please do the following:

Establish moral standards

Parents should tell their children clearly that lying is wrong and immoral from the first time they are found lying. Let children establish clear moral standards in their hearts. Younger children often can't tell right from wrong, so parents' teaching and reminding are particularly important. Therefore, when children lie, it is often the best stage to establish moral norms for children.

Establish rules and incentive mechanism

In addition to the moral standard that "lying is wrong", it should also be clearly listed in the rules: what punishment will be imposed if lying; If you behave honestly, what reward will you get? Explaining the rules clearly to children from the beginning is conducive to reducing children's lying behavior. Moreover, clear rules are conducive to children's compliance, because children rarely understand the rules for the first time and sometimes need to repeat them many times.
