[QUOTE="stressbunny, post: 258836"] Group, I am very new here, and I posted recently about my youngest difficult child (age 7), who had a great deal of homework and was missing recess because of incomplete work. I appreciated all of your thoughts and advice so much. I also posted about my oldest difficult child (age 15) and that he had stolen an ipod from a teammate at school in the locker room. This occurred about one week ago and was his first time getting in trouble for stealing at school - ever. He was suspended for two days and lost out on the opportunity to participate in his athletic events for several meets. He has not yet even fully served this punishment. He was not reported to the police, but we were told that he would be if this ever happened again. He had to pay for a new ipod with his own money. Well, it did! Today! We received a call that he has reportedly (according to his teammates) stolen $120 (yesterday), which they said he then returned when they confronted him. Hubby is on his way to meet with the school officials now to find out the story. I volunteered to help at the local homeless shelter tonight serving food - my first social attempt in a long time. I don't feel comfortable backing out now, but I am sick to my stomach worried about all this. Why? Why? Why?!!!! Do you have any insight as to why difficult child would do this again? Another theft within one week?!!! What happens if the police are contacted? I am so stressed and distraught because I don't know what to do any more. StressBunny [/QUOTE]
