Abstract
This paper examines the phenomenon of habitual lying on the part of a child within the larger context of the family system. An attempt is made to analyse the function of such lying and to relate it to larger system issues. Using a case illustration, the paper further suggests a rationale for intervention in families where one child is perceived by the other members to be a habitual liar.
