I loved this guide because it really helps show how parents and communities can do a better job of teaching our children morals. It's important that children have set morals at a young age because when they grow up they won't have a safety net anymore.It's easy for people to say "well, I'm only stealing this small thing" or "I'm stealing from the company, not people, so who does it hurt?" but this kind of logic can result in a slippery slope where it becomes easier and easier to justify things. This book shows parents how to spot the signs in their children that they might be shoplifting, and then helps them stop it.When I was a little kid, only four years old, I stole a candy bar in a convenience store. Just walked out with it and started eating in the car. When my mom and dad noticed, they drove back to the store, took me in, and made me pay for it. The clerk was amused by it, but not angry, but that wasn't the point. The point is, there is a clear line about what is right and wrong, and if children aren't taught where the line is and where they want to be, then it can have serious consequences in the long run.Anyone who has kids or works with kids and wants the best for them in life, this book is for you.

Something so near and dear to my heart was the story about the lady going to pick up her child for shop lifting. When I was a child I accompanied my grandmother to pick up my brother from the mall for shoplifting and he did it on a dare trying to be cool with some so called friends. I have an eleven year old and I am concerned. I to feel like my child is a good girl but kids will push the envelope to be accepted. I love what you said about inviting your child’s friends over and provide some supervision this is one of the most important things ever! Know your children’s friends! You learn who’s controlling who in the group too. Another great great point is taking your child with you to run errands anything really that will give you time to talk. Like you said being a good listener to your child is very important. No one wants to know why your child stole but you have to listen to keep it from happening again. This middle school mom thanks you for this book.

    Shoplifting Affects Everyone
  

*by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2015*

Shoplifting is the #1 property crime in the U.S.Approximately 23 million people (that’s 1 in 11) shoplift; 6 million of these people are children and teens (ages 13-17)Shoplifting is a gateway crime: 30% of prison inmates admit they started out as shoplifters.We all know that shoplifting is wrong and that we should try and prevent our children from doing it. However, author Judy Whalen takes the knowledge much further in this book. She breaks down the why and how’s of shoplifting. She explains the many reasons and types of shoplifters.She also presents ways to recognize possible shoplifting in young adults and ways to approach the subject. She gives approaches at every level: schools, community, and at home. She also gives several resources that revolve around the program Shoplifting IS Stealing! ™ that she pioneered.In all this is a wonderful resource for parents, teachers, community volunteers, and anyone else interested in shoplifting and its prevention. As she said, shoplifting affects everyone in the form of higher prices at the register, so it is worth getting the word around your local area and stepping up prevention strategies.
