for a 3 year old to lie about everything?? My daughter is 3 years old and she is my only child and when you ask her a question about something that happened, she lies to me about it when I know it was her or she lies about stupid little things that don't really matter. I was just wondering from all of you who have more than one child is this typical??

I wouldn't say unusual. kids say the darnedest things. all you can do is teach her the consequences of lying. I think it's more of fear of being in trouble. I have 1 son who is 17. he did that when he was young but I have always pushed on him that I can hand;e the truth more than a lie. with lying...you get in trouble for what you did AND for lying. with the truth...it's just for what happened. and sometimes it just might be a matter of live and let learn |

its probably not a lie, but just her imagination. 3 year olds dont normally get the difference between a 'lie' which is usually meant to hurt, and what they want to be true (but just isnt) just point out to her that she has a great imagination, but this is what really happened.
when my son was three he told the neighborhood that he had 2 sisters who lived in another country... (he was an only child at the time)everyone asked me about it, i was like-what??

my son has a vivid imagination and has told the school some whoppers.He's seven.At three they are just playing make believe and aren't trying to deceive anyone.My son just likes to screw with the school people's heads and believe me he does.
