[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 630792, member: 1550"] If he used the change jar, he probably stole from your purse too. My daughter used to do this when she used drugs. I honestly never really counted my money much so I didn't notice. I would have called the cops if she stole from me as I believe that only tough love changes them, if they are going to change. I called the police on her once when I found her with pot and that was one of her two paroles. Echo, you did what needed to be done. I am not so sure he did it on purpose or knew you'd find out. Our difficult children can be pretty life-dumb. Especially if they are using drugs. I forgot if yours is or not. At any rate, if he had stolen from anyone else he would probably be in a lot worse trouble. Maybe he learned. I hope he gets his act together while he's "out there." I can't tell you how cool I think it is that you had the ability to be playful and do tennis without underwear even with your adult kid in trouble. We all need to be able to find levity even when our adult children are struggling. That was AWESOME! [/QUOTE]
