Have you ever had a daycare child steal something from your house? This just happened to me, it was a valuable item that belonged to my daughter, it was missing for a whole week. Daycare child (age 8 this month) was questioned about it several times during the week asking if he seen anyone with it (as was everyone else) and denyed knowing anything about it.

Once the parents discovered this missing item was taken by the boy they immediately took care of the issue and were very sorry. I am very thankful the item was returned to my daughter.

However we had a small discussion about this incident this morning and the boy is STILL lying to cover up his actions after giving him a talk about how we all make mistakes and it's better to tell the truth than to lie to cover it up.

Have any of you ever had a child steal from your house and how did you handle it? I want the boy to learn from his actions but he's STILL lying
