Usually teens are in a mode of lying to their parents. It comes with being young, trying to be a man and a need to try their wings. Please think back to when you were younger. Unless you were a very unusual teenager, then you must have lied at some point to your parents. Kids will lie about where they were, if they are drinking or doing drugs, who they hang out with and even sneak out to see their friends. It all stems to the fact that they never think mom and dad could never possibly understand. I can't think of one teenager with a bad report card that didn't lie!

Here is a cute story and it's true:

One morning Jack and Sue got up to find a note from their 16 year old son. It said:

Dear Mom & Dad

I have met a wonderful woman who is 11 years older than me, belongs to Satan's Angels, and promises me the ride of my life. She has showed me all the sexual desires I ever dreamed of knowing. We are so much in love and are getting married in Vegas and we want to start a family right away. I'm quitting school and getting a job to support my new wife and future kids. I'll phone when I can.

Love Gavin

Of course the parents were fit to be tired, but 2 hours later their son walked through the front door and smiled saying, "Guess my bad report card won't look so bad now huh?"

Smart kid! Sometimes we feel smaller things are larger than they are. Things could be worse.

If you really don't agree with me and realize your son has a worse problem then you should seek psychiatric help.

Kids lie for a reason; either out of fear of what the consequences will be for their mistakes, broken marriages, dreading letting their mother or father down, fear of the mother or father.

You don't! The person that is the compulsive liar has to reach out for professional help and it doesn't matter what you say or do, this person has to admit they need help. It truth when they say, "they are always the last to know", meaning, an alcoholic never thinks they have a problem with alcohol, a compulsive liar never thinks they lie, etc. Until they reach a point in their lives where they have no place to go but the truth about themselves there is nothing anyone can do for them.

We are unsure what you mean by "child." First of all, be scrupulously honest yourself. Tell the child that it seems to be a problem, and you would like to see if there is some way to help them stop. Then consult a psychologist. This is not an issue that a parent or family member can handle on their own. It needs to be addressed by a professional.
