[quote=Anonymous]Read "Nurture Shock" and the chapter on lying. The more you punish, the better he's going to lie the next time. If this were me? I would have thanked him for finally coming clean. Then explained how money is tight and it stressed you out for it to go missing. Asked him why he wanted the money, talked about ways he could legitimately earn it. Then I would explain that if he did, in fact, lie and steal again, he would have consequences. Then we would agree on the future consequences (and I wouldn't let it be easy ones) and if it happened again, of course the consequences would be followed through. [/quote]
