Okay, so I realize that I'm rather new here and that basically none of you know me, but I've got a serious problem on my hands and I don't know what to do about it.
So my little sister lately has been stealing. And it's not shoplifting, it's stealing money from Mom. If there's money laying around, even if it's RIGHT NEXT to my Mom's purse or something like that, she takes it. And when we ask her about it, she doesn't know about it. Then we tell her to find it and miraculously it's made it's way upstairs where she "finds" it.
This has been going on for a few months now. And today she really messed up. My mom sent me to do some shopping for things we need since she's sick, and she gave me her wallet and debit card and everything. When I got done shopping, I put ALL the leftover money in her wallet. My friend who was there with me will vouch for that.
So mom asked me today how much was left, and I told her. Then she asked my little sister to get her purse out of the car, and when she looked in her wallet there was $40 missing. It was in my sister's pocket, who claims it was on the seat of the car and she didn't want it to blow away.
And it's not just money. Last year, before I graduated from high school, I would leave for school before she would. Id on't know how many times I came home and found she'd gone into my room and taken jewelry to wear to school.
I don't know what to do, and my Mom is at her wits end as well. I don't want to see my sister go to juvey, but is that really what it's going to take? Please, any ideas would be more then welcome.

How old is your sister? I think that you need to have your mother and yourself talk to her, let her know its wrong. And, like Phantasmagoric_001 said, she may feel the need to steal because of something. It may be something you don't even know about, or maybe she just doesn't know how wrong it is. Maybe shes just a little bit greedy as well. And of course, since she makes up exuses, you need to get it out of her. If it was downstairs and gets upstairs to her room, ask her how it got there. And if you ever see her do it, tell her. "It makes Mom and I angry / sad / upset when you steal money. And I get upset / angry when you take my jewelry to school. You need to ask for my permission."
If it persists even after all that, I'm sorry, but all I can say is get help.
