[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 393201, member: 1991"] I posted on your other link. I think we have got a lot of useful information there. It seems the consensus is - find what is really going on with him, and also along the way see if it opens doors for support for him at school. One point - I found when difficult child 1 was lying so very much (and stealing), it was because advertising around him plus other kids, were telling him that all these toys etc that he craved, were things other people all had, only he did not. And he so desperately wanted what he thought everyone else had, that he stole money from me to go buy these things. He simply could not control his desperation to have what he thought everyone else did. It's a reflection of our consumer society, and he simply did not/could not understand that the advertising world lies all the time. Marg [/QUOTE]
