[quote=Anonymous]I used to teach first grade and some children stole. There were two types 1) Most kids who stole saw something they wanted and impulsively took the item if they had the chance. They didn't put much thought to it and when caught they usually stopped and felt remorse. 2) Really concerning were students (and I didn't see very many of this type) who stole after really planned it out to get what they wanted AND they stole not because they only really wanted something. Instead they realized that by stealing something they caused another student to be sad. It was as if they enjoyed the power they developed by controlling other students' emotions. These kids were seriously troubled and all of them were good liars and manipulators. I made sure never to be alone in a room with them and documented interactions with them because they were so good at getting their parents to believe them. [/quote]
