Teen Lying

The first time I ever caught my teen lying, I was absolutely shocked. My teenage girl had never lied to me before, and I hated to think she was changing so drastically. When she was growing up, she was one of the sweetest, most obedient children you could ever hope to have. She never disobeyed me, talked back to me, had a tantrum, or even questioned what I told her to do. I never expected to catch my teenage girl lying – particularly so brazenly. I caught her in a fib when she stayed out too late. Rather than call me or apologize for losing track of time, she made up some story about a car accident. Needless to say, it was pretty unconvincing and when I checked into it, the thing she said didn't add up.
