    Stealing from home
    Recently, my sister started stealingfrom home all the time. It saddens me to see her like this :'(, and my parents are depressed too... we do not know what to do... we've lost digital camera(S), mobilephones(s), videoplayer, wallets, and so much money that now we are really struggling... we tried to discipline her, talked to her... nothing seem to work...

    We don't know what's best for her, we don't know what to do, she seem to resent everything



    Just a short while ago, I had been really sick, so my parents paid much attention to me... my sister said that she was against our parents because she was jealous... I don't know if this is true... well she hasn't stopped stealling even though I have already recovered...

    I don't know why she's stealing... can someone please help... I want my sweet little sister back so much :'(... please help

    Try being understanding with her ask her what she really thinks.Try to listen to her ideas without interrupting herand make sure that she knows you are always there for her.She might just be going through a phase so please be understanding and patient.
    Hope that helped. ;)

    stealing from home
    I did the same thing when  I was like 10. My mom took me to police office (the guy was her friend, but my mom wanted me to talk to him, and maybe scary me a little) After that, I stopped stealing. Now I'm 16. NO PROBS

    Maybe u should do it too.

    stealing from home
    Just a short note to ask you if you have not noticed anything else wrong with your sister, such as mood swings, funny behaviour or anything as such, as it seems to me that she is stealing things to satisfy a habit such as drugs or alcohol. A child does not just steal for the fun of it. You will have to get into the problem a little deeper. Come back to me if you have some answers.

    stealing from home
    I have found that in the past, children that steal from their own homes have a hidden agenda. You are going to have to let me know if there are certain things happening with your sister at this moment in time.

    Is there any changes in her moods (Mood swings)?
    Is there any changes in her sleeping patterns ?
    Is there any time that she seems to be out of it?

    We have a big problem in South Africa with Drugs and Alcohol at present and this specific topic is always the first thing to come out.

    Please come back to me with some answers and I will take it from that point forward
    :(
