What should I do if I find my child stealing?
When children are found stealing, they should remain calm and rational, guide and educate children in the right way, and help them establish correct moral concepts and behavior patterns.

Keep calm

First of all, keep calm, don't panic and scare the children. You should convey your concern and understanding to your children to promote communication with them.

Check the child's belongings.

If it is determined that the child is stealing, you can check the child's belongings and confirm your suspicion without being discovered by the child. At this time, we can also use the opportunity of inspection to explain to children what property is and what theft is, guide children to realize the bad consequences of theft, and inspire and establish moral concepts.

find out the cause

Please ask the child patiently why he stole. Children may raise some problems and difficulties of their own, even from the pressure of family and school. You need to listen patiently, give advice and help.

education

Educating children in the right way, such as warning or punishment, can't make them feel wronged or hurt. On the contrary, children should be taught how to make rational use of other people's resources, and at the same time remind them of the negative effects of stealing.

Actively solve problems

If the child's stealing behavior is caused by some difficulties and problems, it is necessary to find and solve the problems with the child, such as seeking help from schools and professionals.
