[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 191993, member: 3626"] Clarinet really is a hard instrument at first. I'm not sure I'd push it all that far. She didn't ask for band. You chose it for her. Rarely a good mix. I'm not sure I'd qualify taking the shoes and charger as stealing. It was taking without permission but it doesn't sound like she intended to keep them. Legally, the intent is missing. To my mind, this is what all kids do -- they "borrow" from their parents and the poor parents go nuts. It really is part of the package with kids. She'd definitely have a consequence for taking the items and her backpack would be searched before leaving for school at this point. Actually, I found the pre-teens harder than the teens themselves. So much entitlement, so little sense. Hormones going crazy. Logic non-existent. You have my sympathies. [/QUOTE]
