If you are honestly embarrassed and you have truthful apologies to ask, you better right that down, from the bottom of your heart and there you have the correct letter to be written to your parents.

Dear Mom and Dad,
I wish to apologize for the shoplifting incident that took place. I understand that shoplifting is a criminal act which hurts the store. I will take responsibility for my actions and realize that it's a serious charge. Furthermore, I will accept any consequences as I realize I can't get away with this.I have learned my lesson and will never shoplift again. Next time I will ask for an item or work hard to get enough money to buy an item. Maybe we could consider working on a budget so that I can have the items that I want which I can pay for myself. It's something that I need to learn for the future road ahead.
Thanks for helping me through this. I love you and I know you have high expectations and I will do my part to not let another incident happen again.
Love,
XXXXX

people are quick to judge other people
and while i dont think it was right of you to shoplift...i have to say that your parents are probably also reacting to their own embarrassment, etc--because of your actions. thats why it's best to give it a little while before you jump right in and begin pleading.
once you do write a letter, ask them not to judge you, even though you made a mistake...because you are the one who knows whats in your heart. even if you did something stupid, it doesnt mean you will ever do it again...or maybe it was the wrong place at the wrong time kind of thing. reguardless, you need to show them that you 'get it'...people cant truely forgive unless they know that you 'get it' (how they feel and why)...
its not about just getting off the hook...its about opening up to them, and expressing what was going through your head...how things have changed since then, including what you would fix if you had it to do over, and how you feel towards them. be honest. thats all you can do. if you screwed up for being 'dishonest'...be honest now.
good luck
and remember "this too will pass"

I am sorry your got yourself into this position, but in all honesty, shouldn't you write your own letter of apology? An apology is not and apology unless it comes from the heart. Just say what you feel. It does not have to be a long letter.

It doesnt matter as you include an apology and show you regret what you have done and you will never do it again . include the previous ideas in your letter . as an example .... to mr ( shop owner ) , I real feel bad about what i have done , and as a first thing to do is my apology . I apologize for my crime and I surely regret what i did , and if I could turn the time back I would feel sorry about my self to think of a such deed. ....---and then the rest of the letter component. have a better life with your regretion .

Let me tell you something....No matter how much you try to apologize to your parents, that will not take the hurt of being let down away. You should just think about what you have done, and learn from your mistakes. Never let your parents down by breaking the law. Just try hard to prove yourself to them, by not breaking the law again. Just don't do anything to hurt them like this ever again.

When my son did something that was really embarrassing he wrote me a paper telling why and how his actions effected others. He ended it with a statement to the effect that the worst part was that he let down the very people that had taught him right from wrong.. I couldn't be mad at h im anymore..

Sorry, cant help you there. An apology has to come straight from your heart and only you know the right words to say on how sorry you are.

start with not only apologizing for what you have done, but explain why you are sorry. something like you know it was wrong and your sorry you dissappointed them you didn't mean to you were being selfish and not thinking of how this situation would affect them. your sure this has embarressed them and you feel bad that it happened and that you will try to make them proud of you. sorry about the spelling
