Someone who steals is showing disrespect and one day she'll channel her disrespectfulness to you. Why put up with this type of behavior? Dump her fast.
Another thing to mention is that not only was she very poor but she had 5 other siblings all living in a trailer. And she had to take care of them and said just getting new underwear was a luxury. I did talk to her last night and she said she is working on curbing her stealing but it's hard for her to get past her upbringing. She also said her mother would steal things as well.

That's an excuse.
Lots of people grew up poor and still don't steal.
She is a total pos criminal.
I can't believe you're sitting there debating whether or not you should be with her.
I hear Hitler was charming, too, and threw great parties.

"Working on curbing" it? Her impulse comes from a deep-seated emotional need. The only way to put an end to it is through qualified counseling. Does she work? Does she have health insurance? Her insurance could have a mental-health provision. It may not cost her anything, or just a small co-pay. She should look into it, if she's serious about doing something about the problem.

OP you're making the same mistake many women make who date/mate with the "bad boy." What are you in your fantasy, the white knight who sweeps in to save the damsel in distress. In reality, your relationship will not end good. What you imagine is that she will keep doing bad things, but not to you. In reality, people like this, have no respect for our inborn sense of right and wrong, and no respect for other people's property and possessions. And one day she will turn on you, and steal from you also, if she hasn't already.
Keep in mind, you probably know just about the times she's been caught. There are likely many other times that she hasn't been caught. Remember, there's no honor among thieves, and your living with one.
She needs to realise that she has a problem and look for help, start therapy. She could get in trouble and go to prison. Then what? What if by then your relationship has progressed and you two are married or have a baby together? Or someone could decide to take justice in their own hands? In any case, you're living with continuous stress and she could be in trouble any time and that could affect your life too.

Stress? Therapy? Consequences?
How about just have some standards and not date lowlifes?
This is actually probably an addiction. She most likely gets a high (adrenalin rush) out of stealing. Perhaps it started because of her unfortunate childhood, who knows. But at this stage, it sounds like an addition. (Note: I am a random person on the internet, just my thoughts)
In any case, it sounds like she needs some serious therapy. Whether she wants help and you want to stick with her through it, is another story.
