Help My Son is 11 and He's Stealing

I have an 11 year old son that is stealing from home and family members. He has every gadget and game there is but still steals and hides them in places that I don't even think he plays with them. I have tried EVERY punishment there is but it happens all over again ...oh an of course he looks you right in the eye and says he didn't take it,

Behavior Problems

I'm sure this is something you'd like to nip in the bud immediately. Sounds like it is time to get serious with the discipline. If you've run out of ideas, check out this article for discilpine tips.

You may also look into behavior therapy. Both you and your son need to learn how to deal with his bad behavior. Beef up your parenting skills so you can be a more effective parent and disciplinarian. It is going to take some work.

If you've tried disciplining him and you aren't getting any results. Check out this article on Oppositional Defiant Disorder and see if it fits your son's description.

Good luck, Dena
