HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY
\nJust a thought how as a PARENT and a TEACHER or a GUIDE, one can help children to learn such a value that will last with the child forever- Follow these tips to help your child learn to be honest:
\n1- Avoid labels. Don’t call your child a liar.
\n2- Don’t ask questions when you already know the answer; this will only set them up to lie.
\n3- Work with your child to reduce any unnecessary stress that may be weighing them down and encouraging them to lie.
\n4- Avoid emphasising bad behaviour; try to bring up your child’s good behaviour rather than their bad behaviour.
\n5- Find out why your child is fibbing; there may be important reasons that you don’t know about.
\n6- Praise truth-telling instead of just punishing dishonesty.
\n7- Don’t forget “little white lies.” Encourage your child to be honest, but not brutally and unnecessarily honest.
\n8- Teach your child that lying doesn’t work; it’s never a good way to get what you want.
\n9- Keep your cool-don’t overreact or yell if your child lies.
\n10- Set a good example. The best way to teach honesty is to be honest (VanClay, 2017).<\/p>\n
While these tips and suggestions are meant for parents, many of them can also be practiced by teachers and other caretakers as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
