Parent and child opening up

In a recent post shared to Reddit’s r/Parenting, site user u/Temporary-Art-7477 shared their “Tip to get your child talking about their school day”.

The original poster (OP) suggested, “Instead of trying to pry info out of your kid about how their first few days of school are going, try playing two truths and a lie with them”.

They added that their child has opened up a lot more since they started the game, and also helped OP to recognise when their kid is fibbing.

But what do experts think of the method?

We asked therapist and bestselling author of 13 Things Mentally Strong Parents Don’t Do, Amy Morin, and child, adolescent and family therapist and founder and clinical director of The Wave Clinic, Fiona Yassin, to share their thoughts.
