Joanne Jarrett
MD is a retired family physician, blogger, mom, wife and
entrepreneur and talks with me about her provocative blog post
Three Ways We May Be Teaching Our Kids To Be Liars. Joanne
points out that dishonesty is a misguided short-cut when attempting
to avoid hurt feelings and that kids need to learn to balance
kindness and social grace with authentic response to actions.
This includes telling the truth about bullying, medical conditions,
and life style choices in conversations about socially acceptable
behavior versus accuracy of feelings.
