[quote=Anonymous]I stole as a child. And a teenager. Does she steal at home? From stores? From friends' homes? From relatives' homes? These are important distinctions. I'm not reading six pages of responses. But assuming this is the only place she has been stealing: Keep in mind she might be crying at the principal because she got caught, not because she feels bad. Obviously she can't be allowed to go to the bathroom right before lunch anymore. Obviously everything must be given back to the correct kids. She needs to have it pointed out that if she wanted something , she should have just asked. Because now she's put herself in a position of not deserving anything. Whereas if she'd just asked, and then been a good person, she had a great chance especially with the holidays approaching/here. Unfortunately at this age although she might have the best intentions she may not be able to resist the urge again, so you'll have to keep a closer eye on her (as will the teacher). You also may have to search her hiding spots as well on a regular basis.[/quote]
