Nick Jonas on Parenting: Balancing Truth and White Lies

Nick Jonas discussed using 'alternate truths' while parenting.

Sometimes parents use small lies to make children cooperate, like saying "The park is closing."

A psychologist cautions that these can shape children's view on honesty and trust.

The key is being honest in ways kids understand and correcting yourself when you bend the truth.

Praising honesty encourages truth-telling, setting the stage for children to value it.
