Hi, i really don't know what to do right now, my daughter was supposed to staying at my sisters house tonight and i got a phone call earlier on tonight off my sister saying that daughter was upset as she had been walking past the local shop and the woman working in the shop had confronted her outside and said she wasnt allowed in the shop as she had been shoplifting which i didnt beleive she would so i asked my dad (who was at sisters house) to bring her along home so i could go back to the shop with her to find out what had went on.At this point i did not beleive that she had done anything wrong so went back to the shop and asked the woman what was going on so the woman explained what happened and arranged for someone to come in and show me the cctv footage which clearly shows my daughter when confronted by the shop keepe pull a tube of rolos that she had tried to steal out of her sleeve!I really do not know what to do as i never thought she would ever do anything like this and is really bright and does well at school, im just so shocked that she could do someting like this! The only punishment i can think of is grounding her (was thinking two weeks) and banning her from her netbook (for 1 week) is this enough or should i put something harsher in place?
