How Do I Stop A Nine Year Old Child Who Steals And Lies Without Beating? by siofra(f): 11:32am On Apr 20, 2022
Please how do I do it?

I don't want to hit the child but I want the child to understand that what he is doing is very bad.

Do nine year olds appreciate dialogue?

Would the child change as he grows older?

Yes. 9yr olds appreciate dialogue. You need to let them know actions have consequences and you need to help them understand the consequences of stealing and what could happen to them when they steal. Not all children learn by beating. Some of them become more hardened while some stop. Some do better with a nice discussion. You have to identify what kind of child he/she is to know the best approach for them. You know your child best.

Okay. Beating doesn't work on the child.
His parents beat him but it's not working. We'll try dialogue.

Ok. Goodluck. Also, please teach him by example. You cannot be telling him one thing then, when you think he’s not listening or watching do another thing. Kids learn a lot from our actions and inactions and they know more than we think.

Why won't beating be involved? Even call he's mates and senior uncles to torture him.. when ever he sees what to steal, he'll have a flash back

You don't want to use beating or religion?? So what do you want to use? Is lying a crime? What if he lies for a "good" reason? Buhari lied about his education and he's today a president. Leave the boy to lie in peace. It's no crime.

Dialogue won't work, take away everything he likes from him( not food), if possible take him to the police station to see the way criminals are being treated, take him to the prison to see what becomes of thieves, then buy koboko at home, soak in blended pepper and flog him naked, then repeat the process each time he lies or steals, if this don't work then nothing else will.

Even 3-year-Old appreciate dialogue. They learn best when you communicate allowing them to ask you whatever questions they may have as well. He needs to have clear understanding of why the behavior is wrong and unacceptable. undecided

He won't automagically change. You have to work with him to resolving the issue. undecided

Read up on kleptomania and how to help children deal with the problem. undecided

Constant counselling

Get him or her a gift

Promise the child some things any time he tells you the truth

Be friendly and keep things that he will steal in his custody

If you lie you will steal oo, at least that's what our parents told us. It's good for one to tell the truth, honesty is one of the virtues that should be instilled in children nau.

You have to use all the tools available.
Dialogue - Constant and daily assurances that stealing is bad, show him videos of what happens to those that steal .
Spanking - I am spanking you because x, y z.
Change location - Could it be peer pressure , change friends and if possible location.


If you fail to do so now, society is more cruel teacher and it will end up very very bad for the child.

That's nit an issue

Buying biscuits when coming back from an outing or work is not a crime

When he does well at school, you buy him ice cream because of a good report card is not a crime

Children need to be motivated and gift is one of them

Taking children for an out is part of it

Unless you are thinking other wise

If he loves food a lot limit the food he eats,when he lies don't give him food for that day and explain the reason why...limit the way he plays and try to make him active in sunday schools,download films about stealing and lying and it's repercursion online make him watch them...instead of beating try punishments for an hour or two each time he lies or steal then tell him to go and lay down and sleep without food.
