Depend on children, If parents teach the children not to lie even though if they do mistakes otherwise the will

Early childhood ... lying ... fantasy ..

I think that could happen if it's a child's nature.

Thank you بان حميد فرحان for your answer

Everybody is lying, even the child...

the real reason back to: the environment we lived in and our nature from the beginning

Thank you Dr. Fallah H. Najjar ... Yes Environment has a great role in learning to lie children.

Thank you, but I'm not a Dr.

just the name is more than enough

Never. We teach children not to lie even though if they do mistakes

Lying is a deliberate attempt to deceive. I do not believe 3 year olds do so intentionally. Some may be led by older children and even adults to believe the action of telling a half-truth is a game or act of emulation based on fantasy, such as a cartoon or comic strip, that is harmless. Jones (2016, p.3) suggests, “According to Lewin’s equation, behavior (as well as development) is a function of the interaction between the person. and the environment (Lewin, 1931)”(Lloyd, 2002., p. 76, sub. 2). The aforementioned suggests parents’ ability to create and sustain environments that are conducive or non-conducive to preferred social learning environments toward high-end probability of expectant behavior. Media can, and continues to, be a tool controlled by parents, not the other way around; as long as one functions from an internal locus of control and maintains direct involvement with offspring (Lloyd, 2002; Rotter & Mulry, 1965).

I think children don't tell a lie. This environment teaches them to tell a lie.

لا يمكن علميا ونفسيا اتهام الطفل بالكذب في سن اقل من 5-7 سنوات تقريبا على خلاف بين الاطفال حسب النوع والتربية والثقافة والتنشئة الاجتماعية لان هذه المرحلة (الطفولة المبكرة والوسطى ) تتميز بالخيال ولذا يصدق الاطفال الكارتون وتوم وجيري والاسد سمبا ومغامرات الكلبة الشهيرة التي تضبط اللصوص وتبلغ الشرطة وتقودهم لكشف غموض قتل او اختطاف ولا يمكن ابدا وصف الطفل بالكذب الا بعد استقرار الذات او الضمير الذي يسمى خطا الانا العليا وفق التحليل النفسي وفي السنة المطهرة "مروا أولادكم بالصلاة لسبع وأضربوهم على تركها لعشر " والمقصود ليس الضرب المبرح ولكن العقاب على الترك وللعلم فالمؤاخذه على ترك الصلاة الفعلي مع البلوغ

شكرا إبراهيم الشافعي إبراهيم جوابك رائع وعلمي... تحياتي

I think the child is not lying but may be afraid, to tell the truth

I agree to Dr @ Khaled Edbey

I do not think that 3 years old child can lie

Children are innocent and spontaneity. A child from 2 to 3 years old may deny that he did something or lie to get something. He does not realize yet that lying is wrong, so you should not punish him. You should avoid confronting him and accusing him not to insist on lying, his depends on the surrounding environment and people.

Children can learn to tell lies from an early age, usually by around three years of age. This is when your child starts to realise that you aren’t a mind reader, so he can say things that aren’t true without you always knowing

..If one notices that a 3-year child starts to tell lies, one should not consider the child being too young to be corrected. It has to be brought to his/her awareness that the act is not good, otherwise lying becomes part and parcel of the child's behaviour (which is very bad for the innocent child).

Thanks Olawumi Osundina I appreciate your answer

Thanks Khaled Edbey ... My appreciation and respect.

Thank you Dr. Ibrahim...Participation definitely comprises "shared pleasure" through empiricism and high-end scholarship.

Among the reasons for lying

- Coverage of a certain act carried out by the child so as not to punish.

i think no

I think No because in this age cannot distinguish between correct and wrong and then lie .

Yes, though the lies may be rudimentary in nature. For example, a toddler may hide it's bottle if it knows it might get it taken away post-meal. In this instance, hiding the bottle is a situational lie, as it indicates the toddler does not have the bottle. The depth and effectiveness of lies at this age are typically very superficial and ineffective. Though, and I say this because I saw you mentioned Freud in an earlier post, this impulse to lie may not always be derived from learned behavior, but rather inferred from innate human thought processes based off of fundamental needs such as Freud's "id" response of attaining physiological sustenance. This fundamental physiological need I'm referring to is the initial necessity in a model composed by Maslow.

Lying is fundamentally about self-preservation, something innate to a developing, healthy, mind. Though if your toddler is lying to you about not having it's bottle, it may be an indication that one need's to feed the child more (as the lie is made to procure sustenance, and the job of the parent is to provide sustenance, so lying about a lack of sustenance may be an indicator of more sustenance being needed)

Thank you Madhu Bala for your answer

Thanks Diego Hernandez for your wonderful response

Thanks Darryl Jones

Of course the child does not know lying this age .. Thank you Wisam W. Alhamadi

Yes, children do not lie to this age, and if it happens, it is an expression of imagination. Thank you. Dear Mohammed Shwaish.

How to handle lying and deliberate lies

If your child tells a deliberate lie, the first step is to let him know that lying isn’t OK. Explain why and let your child know that you might not be able to trust him in future.

The next step is to use appropriate consequences. For example, if your child drew on the wall and then lied about it, get her to help you clean it up.

may be but little

Yes, we must make it clear to the child that lying is not good behavior. Thank you Djaafar Zemali

Thanks dear Wisam W. Alhamadi .. my greetings

Never

Thank you Sandeep Chandrashekharappa for your answer.

Thank you Nirmala S.V.S.G .. my greetings

Children are characterized by innocence, do not know lying,

Absolutely, "the child in this age is spontaneous in all his actions and does not know the meaning of lying

It depends on the child's exposure.

depends.. so the answer would be YES and NO

Thank you Nour Shakir for your answer

Thank you Mala Babagana Gutti for your answer

Thank you Md Azree Othuman Mydin for your contribution

I fully agree with the response of Nour Shakir

The child may start lying at the age of three years, and the lie goes through stages.

Children are different and therefore there is a difference in habits such as lying
