when she has something that she isnt allowed to have, you can take a small lid and put peanut butter on it. you should have two of those. take them and put it beside her head so that she is able to see it. once she sees it, she will think that the peanut butter is more intresting than what she has that she isnt supposed to. once she gets her full attention on the lid of peanut butter, say trade. it should be easier after going through this so many times to get stuff away from her. it might possibly make her stop taking stuff, but Im not making any promises. just keep on switching lids until she gets the message. then, after a while of doing that, take something that she usually gets into and doesnt try to give back, then you take that and let her get the attention on it. you have the lids in your hand and you put one of them down by her. once she gets her attention on that, say trade. keep on doing that. i hope i helped. if you have any questions, just email me. c_Freeman95@yahoo.com
