We also want to model for our children that honesty can be accepting who you are and sharing these traits with others. In order to complement our efforts, parents should discuss with their children a time when being honest was a difficult choice to make. Parents can talk about how they felt before and after making a choice to tell the truth. Parents may also want to share a time when they were growing up and learned about honesty.\u00a0 Children like hearing from their parents how they had tough choices too!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>\u00a0<\/i><\/b><b><i>Honesty is often very hard.
