Better strict or lenient parent? Here's what the experts say

The child's first lie shows that he is capable of thinking independently of his parents! The first lies are called "white" and parents are amused in such cases, but if the latter are told out of place, parents should be worried! Certain behaviors place the child in certain situations, and fear is the primary emotion that prompts a child to hide the truth.

According to psychologists and social behavior experts, children tend to lie when parents are too demanding and strict with them. In difficult situations, when they know that they can be punished, children prefer to hide the truth.

According to research by Victoria Talwar, a psychologist and child expert at McGill University, it was found that children of strict parents lie to avoid parental punishment. According to the Independent, Talwar studied two schools that were run with very strong discipline. During the development of a trike game, the children fell "prey" and gave false answers just to look smarter. While in a public school, the children answered without fear and because everyone thought they were wrong, no one told anything but the truth.

In an interview with BBC Radio 4, psychotherapist Philippa Perry explained that strict parents at home can create a similar effect. When parents run their home with an "iron fist", the child will not feel safe and will tend to lie about everything, even about his thoughts.

The children alone should not be blamed, because their dishonesty is a "co-created situation".
