Pilfering is the act of stealing things that are of little or no value. It can also be linked to stealing things in small quantities. People can sometimes pilfer things like coins, pencils, paper and so on.
There are different reasons people steal from others. One of the commonest reason is that they cannot afford what was stolen. In addition, the pressure to be like your peers can drag one into pilfering an item(s). For some others, jealousy can cause them to steal what belongs to another person possible because they are not happy that it belongs to the real owner. Furthermore, some others can steal just for no reason at all.
Although some people may argue that pilfering is not really stealing, however, it still has to do with taking something that does not belong to you and more so, on a regular basis. It is advised that anyone who pilfers should get some help in order to put an end to it.
