[quote=Anonymous]9:53 poster here. I just want to say to the OP that I understand your frustration and that I'm sorry that the lying is creating a stressful time for your family. When a behavioral intervention fails, it can be because it's the wrong intervention, because it's not applied consistently enough, or because the reward or consequence is not sufficiently motivating. Yes, it's a ton of effort, especially with other children at home, but I'd look at consistency and consequences first. Failing that, ask a mental health professional for his or her advice on how to make adjustments. The upfront investment of time and energy is a lot, but you're trying to help your child make a lifelong change in work habits and in honest interactions. That's worthwhile. Wishing you all the best as you work through it. [/quote]
