[QUOTE="Stella Johnson, post: 60260, member: 9"] Oh I forgot about the stealing... My difficult child also had issues with this. She stole from stores mostly. She did understand that it was not hers and that she hadn't paid for it but if I refused to buy it, she would hide it and steal it. I always made her take it back to whatever store and give it back and also apologize. We went over the consequences of stealing over and over again. In the end, what stopped it was taking her to the police station. I made her tell them what she did and they showed her where people who steal go. At first the police thought I was being to harsh with her but they finally agreed to show her. She was crying and apologizing the whole way. Since then, has not stolen again. This works with some kids, some it doesn't but it is worth a shot. Steph [/QUOTE]
