[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s crazy to me is that my kids don’t lie about big things—they literally run to us when they screw up or fail a test or do something terrible. BUT they lie about the dumbest crap—like “yes HW done”…then find them up at 3am doing said HW. Or “I’m not doing anything on Saturday” then find out Saturday morning that yes, they are actually going to a school dance and had been planning to go for weeks. I think it’s a weird effort to maintain control.[/quote] Your teen wants autonomy and you off their back. They want it to be their decision when they do homework and if they're going to the dance. Imagine having a controlling husband who asks every time you go somewhere: "Where are you going?". First you tell and after a 100th time it's like I'm not going to F* tell you, even if all I'm going to do is buy milk at a grocery store! [/quote]
