Hi Parents!

In this episode, we're diving into a topic that can feel frustrating - when your teen lies. I know how tough it can be to understand why they’re being dishonest, but recognizing anxiety as a driving factor can change how you respond. This episode is all about helping you navigate these tricky moments with empathy and clarity.

I share insights into how anxiety often leads to lying, especially when teens are overwhelmed by fear, shame, or the pressure to protect themselves. By understanding the “why” behind the behaviour, you’ll be better equipped to support your teen in managing their emotions and fostering honest communication.

This conversation also includes practical strategies for parents - like shifting from punishment to curiosity and addressing the root causes of anxiety. These tools will help strengthen your relationship with your teen and guide them toward healthier ways to cope with stress and pressure.

Tune in, and let’s work together to help your teen break free from anxiety-driven behaviours and build trust in the process!

Big hugs,

Monica Crnogorac
