It has been seen that now a days the trend of lying among teens increases. Now the question arises why this trend is increases? In a study it has been seen that teens said that many times they have to lying. The reason behind that their parent expectations are very high and they does not fulfill their expectations.

Some teenagers said that lying is very necessary and it is a part of life while others say that some things are private and not shareable with others under any force so at that conditions they lying and make a new story for hidden the truth and once they lie then they have a habit of it and for hide the older lie they tells a lie again. The other reasons of lying are to protect him from problems.

The other reasons of laying the teenagers are to prevent them from their parent anger. So we can say that behind the habit of lying the parents are slightly responsible. So parents should have understand their responsibilities and always ready to face every condition. The effect of this behavior on the teens that they tell a truth more likely and also makes their child a habit of telling truth.

If parents tell a lie opposite to the teens they also make a habit of tell a lie. This is the tendency of the child that to do same as his/her parents do. If they see their parents taking short cuts that disobey their affirmed ethical values, teens rapidly absorb this information and see that what they said and what always done.

If you find your child lie then at that time you tell him/her that it is wrong. This will also make effect on him/her. Lying is habit and it also depends on a group of kid so it also the responsibility of teen's parent that they protect them from bad group.

If your kid's misbehavior increases then it is possible that he/she also has a habit of lie. To protect from this habit, monitor your teen. This kind of monitoring will show your child that he must work to achieve your trust again. A youth who is responding well to monitoring can be pleased with more freedom and the more liability that comes with it.

Sometimes the facilities provides teenager become the reason of lying habit so always pay full attention to your ward.
