Implement error handling. When parsing JSON, wrap the parsing code in a `try...catch` block (or equivalent in your programming language). Catch the specific exception thrown by the parser (e.g., `JSONDecodeError` in Python) and provide a user-friendly error message or fallback behavior instead of crashing the application.
