Parents, what have you done when you caught your kids stealing?

Well, my daughter is just 3 months old, but I have a story of my own (unfortunately). One day when I was little--I'm guessing like 4 or 5, maybe--I swiped a pack of Chiclets gum from the grocery store. I made it all the way home without my mom knowing. I snuck behind the sofa in the "sitting and talking room" (what they called our fancy living room that kids really didn't frequent) and was just about to open them. My Mom came in out of nowhere and busted me. She drove me back to the store and made me tell the manager that I stole the gum and give it back to him. It was embarring and shameful--to the point that I never stole again.
