    This is so hard! My daughter has been caught several times stealing candy from her siblings. We have talked to her, written out verses with her, asked her to use her own money to buy candy to replace what she stole, etc. And yet, she stole from my purse a couple days ago. It’s an issue of self control. I don’t know where to take it from here. We have talked about Jesus giving her victory over her impulses. We have talked about temptation. Nothing seems to help.

      When it hits this point it is often driven by other issues. I recommend you speak to your child’s dr for a referral to a pediatric mental health professional that can help her move past this compulsive behavior
