[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 444570, member: 1550"] When my two oldest boys were about seven they stole some Star Wars figures which were popular at the time. Without even talking to them about it, I drove them back and made them tell the security guard what had happened, and then let him take it from there. He showed them all the cameras in the store and said there were some in the parking lot too. He took them for a stroll around the store, pointing out all the hidden places and told them how they would call the police next time. I did not go with. Both were scared to death, but did not cry until afterward. I never had a problem after that. I also made my daughter take back clothes she had shoplifted and 'fess up. She was thirteen so I told the store that she was available to volunteer to help if they needed her. She was lucky they turned her down. She was told she could never go back to the store or the police would be called. She did a lot of things as a teen, but I don't think she shoplfited again. If she did, she didn't get caught. [/QUOTE]
