Case: Stealing Student
I have a student in my classroom who has begun stealing things out of other student's desks. She has also taken pens and pads of paper from my desk. When the issues first began, she did not own up to her actions, however now she will say she did it. There does not seem to be any remorse and I have to ask her to apologize to others. What can I do to teach her that stealing is wrong and to prevent it from happening again?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would report the incidents to administration and refer the student to guidance counselors for further evaluation. There is certainly an underlying issue as to why the student is stealing. The guidance counselor may be able to recommend some services for the student's family if financial hardship is the reason for the stealing. |

Comments: If the student has shown no remorse to the stealing, which she has already admitted to doing, then getting others involved would probably be the next step. The guidance counselor may be able to get the student to open up more about why she does it. Also, having the administrators aware of what's happening is always a great idea. Aside from you reading stories about stealing, the administrator can talk with the students about some consequences that can happen, which may cause the student to realize how wrong it is. |
