The man identified only as Park, 59, took off his own shoes before entering mourning rooms and donned the stolen footwear when he left. The police in southern Seoul 's Suseo district said Park intended to sell them through his own second-hand shoe business . Koreans normally remove outdoor footwear when indoors, especially at funeral homes. Park was caught stealing three pairs of shoes, worth a total of 2 million won ($2,440) when new, at one funeral home. The police then raided his warehouse and found 1,200 pairs stored according to size in preparation for resale. A police officer said they put the footwear on display last week and many pairs were reclaimed by owners. AFP From TODAY, Friday, 19-Feb-2010 ---------- Related article...

Image via Wikipedia By Dr Bill Maier The most common error parents make when disciplining their kids is disciplining out of anger . Imagine a police officer who tried to keep people from speeding by simply getting angry at them. He could stand on the street corner and yell as they passed by, trying to convince them to slow down. He could even jump up and down and turn blue in the face with anger, but would anyone really listen? We pay attention to him because he has the authority to pass out tickets. That's how parenting is. If you want to change a child's behaviour, you do it through clear consequences, not through anger. You calmly explain the offence, and then enforce the punishment. It's the only effective method of raising disciplined kids.
