[QUOTE="WhymeMom?, post: 100446, member: 53"] Look at it this way.....even if you don't press charges he will still need more money.....when your family closes off the $$$$s he will go elsewhere, start robbing businesses etc. If he picks up a gun to use in the robbery or someone else goes with him who has a gun and someone is hurt could you forgive yourself that you may have had a chance to stop this? This is the exact question I have asked myself about our son.... When family sources are shut off he may become more desperate...My two cents says as difficult as it may be, prosecute him and get him in jail, not a cure, but could help dry him out for a period of time....also your grandparents could take a hit on their cash reserves for nothing, since more than likely he will steal from someone else and they WILL prosecute....
