This week is the final episode of Season 1! In this episode Laura and Dr Ruth discuss lying. From why kids lie, how to respond to kids lying and parents lying to children.

Instead of listener questions, in line with this weeks episode we hear from some of our listeners as they share with us some of the best lies their children have told them, as well as lies they told themselves as children!
