this child (5yrs) constantly lies from silly things like 'i drawed this picture all by myself', then 2mins later ' not really I used a stencil', to other children ohurting her when i have seen they were no where near her to lying that she had the toy first and now we get,,,child L 'i want that ' child B 'but im playing with it', child L 'well if you dont give it to me I will tell', child B ' but i had it first', child L 'right well i am going to tell then' at which point child B gives in and gives the toy away.
its not fair on the other children and I am getting really fed up with this now,, i seriously dont know when to belive her or not , the other day she went to stand on a baby so i told her off , she got upset and went in the living room then suddenly cried really loudly and said shed hurt her foot, the next day i asked how her foot was and she said 'oh i didnt really hurt it':angry:
how would you deal with this? I have spoken to the parents before but to be honest mum lies to the child so thats obviously where it comes from and I am going to speak to them again tommoro about it,, to be honest I am close to giving notice as its unfair on the other children that she does this all the time but it seems a trivial thing to give notice for so I want to try and work it out.
please help,, how do I deal with this and stop her lying and know when to start beliving her again!
