Dear Manager

So Callie and Dave went to the store today, and as they were loading up the car with groceries a guy pulled up behind him and said " Hey you might want to check your little girls pocket" Yep, there it was a pack of Orange gum. Dave made her take it back in, told her she broke the law, so on and so on. So when she got home she came running to me with tears and tears of sadness, telling me something about gum and the law and the police, So she went to her room, Dave and i talked about it and here is the Punishment...... She had to write 20 sentences saying i will not steal. Of course i wrote the top one so she knew what she was writing. and then she had to write the manager a note ( Dave couldn't find him when they went back in so he just made her put it back) So told her she had to also write a letter to him. No t.v. for the day and no going outside for the day. ( and it sucks because its a NICE Day, and it's her fav thing to do)

Here is the note she wrote to the manager... :) Yes i wrote dear manager at the top.
It says- " Dear Manager. I am sorry i stole gum. Love Callie. I will never do it again, please don't call the police"

Oh man! I remember stealing a pack of gum when I was a child too! It's crazy that we think it's okay. When my mom found it, she was outraged and I had to take it back to the store and apologize to the manager's face. I was so scared! Needless to say, I never did it again! I like your way of handling it too! :)
