8 Tips for Handling Lying, Stealing, and Cheating - Weekend Wisdom

Drop us some Fan Mail. Thanks!

Q: I just recently found out my 14-year-old has stolen makeup more than once from different stores. I caught her this past weekend, and she said she did it once, but I went through her bedroom and found makeup stashed in a pillow, and I know I didn’t buy it. She gets straight A's in school, and I thought she was a trustworthy person. I just don’t know what to do.
