ANN LANDERS
Answers Your Problems
Dtar Ann: Our six-year-old son
has a habit of taking things from
neighbors. He gets into their
homes under the pretex of using
the bathroom, then helps himself
to small objects. He shows me
(rather proudly) what he took
and tells me where he got it.
I always insist he go back to
the house and leave the stolen
object somewhere.
I've tried to explain he should
n't take things but he seems to
be getting wcrse instead of bet
ter. What shall 1 do? Worried
Mother.
Dear Mother: You art foster
ing this boy's thievery by mak
ing a game of it. The next
time he steals something make
him take it back and hand it
to the woman with his apolo
gies. And go with him to make
sura he dots it just this way.
Many youngsttrs go through
tht light-fingtrtd stagt. With
proper partntal guidance they
normally stop as they get old
er. It's a form of collusion when
you ptrmit tht boy to sntak j
tht stoltn object back into tht
horn. Ht can't set tht differ
ent bttwetn sneaking it out
and sntaking it in. This could
btcomt a dangerous practice
and I hop you'll put an tnd to
it at once.
Dtar Ann: My wife says I'm a
case for a psychiatrist. Before
I head for the couch I'd like
your opinion.

The minute she comes in she

She's in a high style business
