[QUOTE="WSM, post: 274895, member: 5169"] Geez, it never ends. This afternoon I got home b4 difficult child and son19 took my car to work so difficult child didn't realize I was home. difficult child was dropped off on time and came over to look in the living room windows, probably looking to see if anyone was home and if he could do something he wasn't supposed to. I brought him in and he went up to his room. We had dinner at 4:45. Just pizza. When I went to get him out of his room, he was playing a ds. But not one that belonged to his siblings. Nope, this one had a 'used' sticker on it from a store and a bar code and the price $79.99, and looked in good shape, no scratches or anything. He says "White" gave it to him at school. Yep, he goes to a school where most kids have nothing and live under the poverty level and some kids just gives a perfectly good $80 toy to difficult child. Right. Oh, and his brand new floor we put in a couple weeks ago has sharpie drawn all over it. :angry: So after dinner I have him go take a shower and I take a good look at this ds. Something's wrong. Then I realize: it's brand new. There are no scratches on it, the screen is like gloss. It's in perfect condition. THe sticker on the inserted game is white and brand new. It was returned because someone traded it in for a DSi. My daughter's had a brand new DS since May 5, her birthday and it looks far worse than this. So when he gets out of the shower, I say, "You stole it, it's brand new." We go round and round, him insisting White got a new one for his birthday and said, hey difficult child, you can have this one. "We're going to go talk to WHite about it tomorrow." "White won't be there." Turns out White hasn't been to the school since Xmas. So who'd he get it from? Georges. But 'technically' he got it from White, since WHite gave it to Georges. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it turns out difficult child stole it off Georges' desk today and was planning on returning it tomorrow. He wasn't worried that I found and confiscated it, because Georges' didn't know he had it and difficult child figured that he could just pretend he knew nothing about it. :knockedout: [/QUOTE]
