pepper her tongue every time you catch her in a lie or make her eat soap. i have a step daughter that is a compulsive liar and i have been making her lick the soap when she lies. so she does not lie so much no more!
I have a step daughter also whos 10, if i would catch her in a lie, i would sit her down and tell her i was very very disapointed in her and i thought more of her as a person untill she made me believe she was a untrustworthy person and that her crediblity went right down the drain with me, I would use adjatives and i would make sure she understood exactly what they ment, after she stopped bawling her eyes out i would go up to her and hug her and tell her i dont want to have to doubt her all the time and limit the things she can do because i cant trust her, let her know what the consequences of her actions are in clear tearms, it doesnt matter what figure you are in her life, a lier is a lier and everyone in the human race sees a lier as someone they cant trust, and she needs to understand that before she keeps making this a habbit and a life style, if your not her parent, talk to her parents after you do what you see fit and explain im her teacher and i cant tolerate this in my classroom or what ever your role is in her life
In my opinion, treat her equally, as I would any person. Play a few April Fool's day jokes on her for awhile and see if she gets the point! She needs to know the truth for what she cares about as a 10 year old as much as you do as a parent.
Depends on the lies and your reactions when you are told the truth.If you are one of those who can not be talked to or told the truth without paying for it never expect the child or anyone else to tell you nothing but lies.On the other hand this can also be an attention getting device and very normal-I was told with out story telling then reality for a child would never be ok-soart of a phase of life-Then there is the worst case reasons the child may be hidding something with all the other not so bad of lies-Professional help will be needed then,the more understanding you can be the better even as hard asit seems to be-Also do not set yourself up to be lied to-example if you know the room is not clean why ask if it is or not just say clean it your room is not clean-
