What is the difference between kleptomania and ordinary shoplifting?

▸ The kleptomaniacal person steals for the enjoyment of stealing, not for the need of the object they have stolen.

▸ Kleptomania involves the theft of significant or expensive items, whereas shoplifting involves the theft of items of trivial value.

▸ Kleptomania involves stealing repeatedly over a period of time, whereas shoplifting refers to a single episode of theft.

▸ Kleptomania involves causing damage while stealing, such as breaking into a home or store, whereas shoplifting is not a destructive act.
