DS is 11 yrs old and has been stealing money on and off from us for a couple of years. started when he was being bullied in school - thought me and hubbie had dealt with it but every now and then money goes missing, when confronted he used to tell lies and swear blind that he hadn't done it but he's not a convincing lyer (thankfully) and would always end up admitting it. recently has started admitting it without the lies which he is always praised for but basically i'm out of ideas ..... we've tried the sit down and explain why it's wrong, he's always been punished when he's done it (no telly, computer, wii etc). He's done it again tonight and I don't know what i'm doing wrong... any advice???
