[quote=Anonymous]My 14 year-old is always lying to us about whether his homework is done. Most recently (but it happens all the time), last night he told us he was done, I said "can I see" and he admitted that it wasn't done and apologized very sad and sweet saying "I don't know why I always do this". He couldn't finish it before bed so he asked me to get him up early to finish, which I did. He set to work after a quick breakfast and after a while he said he was done. Again I said, can I see it as I asked last night? He then admitted it wasn't done. Again he apologized and said he knew his lying hurts us both. I asked him what he thought he would achieve and of course he said, "not having to finish it." To which I said, your grades will suffer and you won't get a smart phone (the reward for all A's and B's by end of year) and he said "I know but I just can't help it."[/quote]
