[quote=Anonymous]I think lying is pretty common for teenagers. Studies show that harshly punishing lies doesn’t stop the lying, it just makes them get better at lying. I’m a proponent of screen limits, phone lives downstairs at night, time limits on apps, etc. But I’ve rarely taken their phones away. They aren’t perfect, but I think we have struck a balance at home. I would try giving a little to her so she doesn’t feel controlled while still having limits. Sit down and have a rational conversation with her and literally write up a contract. Having it in writing will benefit you both. [/quote]
