[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 651545, member: 1967"] I think that the "what if" is the hardest part. What if he is telling the truth? What if he didn't really take it? What if I just lost it? Those were the questions that kept me from taking action. To this day my Difficult Child denies stealing my jewelry even though we found some of it in her room. Even though I know that she had to be the one that took it, I still ask myself if there is the smallest possibility that she didn't take it since she is still denying it. I regret now not taking action on the things we could prove. Like when Difficult Child and her friend used one of our credit cards when they ran away her senior year in high school (they were gone a week). They didn't put a large amount on the card so I was reluctant to press charges. Maybe if husband and I had pressed charges, it would have stopped the progression down the dark road her life has taken. But, it also might not have changed a thing. You have to do what you can live with but I do believe that your son stole those items. Even if he didn't, I agree with jabberwocky. He had no business leaving his friend in your house while no one was home. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
