[QUOTE="Sunlight, post: 14074, member: 97"] grace, I know you cannot toss him out. so, what can you do that you are ok with? I hate that you had to buy back your own possessions and he ended up with the pawn money anyway. other than locking things up and realizing nothing is safe, I hope you confronted him. please at least tell him any more thefts will be reported right to the cops. otherwise you are enabling him. no consequences for stealing will make him do it again. get a notebook, write down the date and what he stole and what you paid to get it back. show it to him. tell him he owes it to you and make him get work and pay it back if it is even 5 bucks a week. I feel bad that your life is like that. there was a time I too let ant get away with more than I should have. his dad was on oxycontin and ant stole and sold a months supply. his dad would do nothing about it so I couldnt either. however when ant stole and sold his dad's wedding ring. I went to the cops. the ring was already cut up by a pawn shop jeweler. the cops made the jeweler purchase a similar one for us. his dad did not want to prosecute but I insisted. I knew next time he would rob someone else. If I had not pushed ant he would still be robbing us and others. [/QUOTE]
