She then mentioned that her colleagues and direct reports at work also lied to her – often by not giving her bad news or information.
Because it was a Saturday and the sun was shining and I was feeling particularly bolshie, I told her this:
“They are lying to you because they don’t like YOUR REACTION.”
I asked her to recall her reactions to information she received that she didn’t like.
I could see the wheels turning for her – so I deftly changed the subject because I had gotten my message across. 😉 😎
So friends – whether it’s your kids or other people, if they are lying to you frequently, then maybe this is more about you, less about them. 😂
