My 15 years old daughter has been stealing and lying from last 3 months. Even I have caught her many times but she never admits that she has done wrong. Also she lies about various issues of completing her homework, where she is going etc. She has been into stealing her friend’s belongings in school and because of this; she broke off with one of her best friend. I and my husband feel ashamed when somebody tells us about this habit of our daughter. Please tell us what to do?

Your daughter needs a therapeutic counseling. You must visit a local therapist and start working on what is going wrong. Check out if she has any of her friends indulged in the same thing or somebody poisoning her to do such things. Don’t be afraid, your child will definitely restore well.

See, parenting such a teen is not an easy job. May be your child requires a child psychologist. Start personally assessing your child’s behavior, activities, her strengths and weakness.

I think this habit of your daughter is due to some other problem she is facing. Most of the teens start stealing things from home just for fun or thrill. Soon this habit becomes so severe that they start stealing things from shops and from their friend’s house. You should talk to him frankly and try to tell her the consequence of this. Give proper attention and love to her. She will certainly improve.

Hi, this is Jim from Maine. I could understand how you are suffering with your daughter. It is a terrible experience when some one points out our mistake. So as a friend I could give you a suggestion to join her in a troubled teen school because that is the ultimate place for all troubled teens. They guide these troubled teens in an organized manner, where they couldn’t have such type of systematic approach in home.

Really it was an embarrassing moment when others point out our mistake. We have to maintain a friendly and affectionate atmosphere in our home so that our children don’t have any problem. In this case your child is behaving like a troubled teen. It’s all a part of troubled teens. I think she got new friends which make her to spend on various occasions. Being a responsible parent we have to talk to children in a soft manner and explain the situation when this was continued for a long time. I think a word can change rather a stick can do.

Your daughter is gong on wrong path. She needs good parenting and care. Don’t scold her and tell her that it is a bad habit. You have to understand that why your daughter need money and why shy is lying. May be she need money for her own purpose and you are not giving her. Notice her activities and know that where she is spending this money.

Your daughter activities will take her to the wrong path. As a mother it’s your responsibility to ask her about her needs, where she is going, and about her friends. Whenever she needs money tell her to come to you not to steal the money. Also tell her that her activities can expel her from the school.

I can understand how you are feeling; it felt very ashamed when some one tells you about her activities. You must keep a watch on her that someone is not poisoning her to do these kinds of activities. There are many therapeutic treatment centers available that can help your daughter to sort-out this problem.
