Childhood mistake ruining my life?

Wise N Weary asked:


I am 20 but when I was 16 I stole 30 dollars worth of red bull from a rite aid. My problem is even though I’m all grown up with a great credit and work history, this CONSUMER REPORT is holding me back from good jobs. So..how long does an item stay on a consumer report also is there a way to remove items??
