[quote=Anonymous]What kinds of extra chores are we talking about to earn that $3-4, and how many times per week would you let her do it? Stealing isn't okay, but I suspect the underlying issue is your total control over money and her complete lack thereof. She has no spending money of her own except for what you will allow her to earn by doing extra chores, and she can double it but only if she does what you want with it. She's stealing so she can feel like she has some sense of autonomy and isn't constantly under your thumb. Give her a reasonable weekly allowance and the stealing will probably die fast.[/quote]
