parents should try to always be as honest as they could be. If they can't be honest they should not tell them anything that isn't guaranteed. being open builds a foundation of trust because trust is vital for any relationship but especially those with children. being open and honest gives a child no reason to doubt the parent unless the parent gives them a reason to. without honesty, children may find it difficult to build healthy relationships and have a successful future. parents need to set a positive example so that when their children are older, they are honest with people close to them.
for parents, it can be hard, to be honest, all the time because they can be dealing with difficult situations where the child might not understand. parents want their children to look up to them, respect them, love them, and believe that they will always have the right answers to many of their questions. but many parents think that lying is the best way for that to happen. being honest is always the better option. it gives the child a sense of security that their parent won't lie to them about something extremely important. parents being honest with their children makes children realize as they get older that they can go to them with anything, at any time, and they will understand.
