324: When The Stepkid Lies - Video

Ever wondered what to do when your stepchild lies about you? 😮 This episode of the Nacho Kids Podcast dives right into the complex world of stepfamily dynamics. Specifically, what happens when perceptions and flat-out lies collide.

Join Lori & David as they share hilarious and relatable real-life stories about parenting, misunderstandings, and the struggles of blending families. From being “accused” of hollering at the kids during morning wake-ups to confronting the harsher reality of kids fabricating serious stories, the hosts break down why lies happen and what you should do when you’re caught in the crossfire.

Whether it’s perceived slights, real deception, or navigating tricky conversations with your partner or the “other” parent, you’ll find practical tips, lots of laughs, and a reminder that sometimes, it’s all about perspective. 🔄 Plus, you'll get insights into handling accusations with calm, setting necessary boundaries, and protecting your peace; sometimes with a little help from technology (hello, cameras!) or by just not being alone with the stepkids for a while.
