[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 584749, member: 84"] Regardless of it "coming back on the parent", I'd press charges. This is pretty serious stuff, not petty theft like digging in your wallet for a few bucks. If he gets away with this, what does that teach him? He will repeat it. Who will he choose next time? Know what I mean?? If it were me? The boy would be working for me sun up til sun down doing every disgusting chore I could come up with to pay me back for many months to come. That is only IF I didn't decide to press charges. Odds are, something like this would've landed a kid of mine in jail. There are lines you don't cross. Ever. He just crossed one. Most likely it would be jail AND the chores......but I am strict, no nonsense and a firm believer in natural consequences. ((((hugs)))) I'm so sorry. I know this makes you livid, but I also know it wounds a mom's heart awfully badly too. [/QUOTE]
