Question

Why do boy/girls steal.?

Answer 1

because they dont listen to their parents so we dont give them money and they steal and then from that they hook up with the wrong crowds and they do stupied stuff

Answer 2

It starts off as greed or envy - one wants something someone else has. Then it's exciting to know that one got away with it (perhaps) and one wants more excitement ... one hardly ever thinks of the shame and the consequences of being caught.



If you ever find yourself in that situation (and most people do from time to time). Think of it as a chain - greed, excitement and (perhaps) guilt - more excitement and less feeling of guilt - ... and so on. You need to break the chain, so concentrate on seeing how misplaced the excitement is and seeing how you could get excitement (or happiness) legitimately. Simply telling yourself that greed, envy, theft and so on are wrong is a negative (but traditional) way of dealing with the problem. Trying to find the most positive solution always works far better.



The same technique can be applied to almost every addiction which works by seeking satisfaction or pleasure of some kind. It's the search for 'happiness' which is actually most in our control and responds best to reason.

Answer 3

It gives some people a temporary high because they actually got away with stealing a particular something. And most times, if they don't get caught...they get to keep the material object(s) they stole.

Answer 4

it's just normal it's part of growing up like jealousy that they see a cool stuff and that stuff they didn't had it yet in there in tire life so it called steal but if u still keep on doing it stealing always that's bad already u must follow the ten commandments....

Answer 5

It is very common for young people to do this. They don't have resources. They don't really understand the system of our economy very well, they don't think about what will happen when they get caught (because there is a low rate of getting caught). But if you keep stealing you will eventually get caught. My son used to do it for the thrill of getting away with it. It's a very difficult habit to break.

I believe some kids steal because they don't have good role models.
