[QUOTE="klmno, post: 185038, member: 3699"] And, maybe he could do chores for you to pay you back for the cost of the gift certificate. Work and money can have a little more impact than words and lack of trust sometimes. Maybe let the neighbor know you are having him do this and asked her how she would prefer to be compensated- I definitely don't think I'd want undies back that had been stolen and put in a dumpster. If he took all of the Mom's and daughter's undies, they have already gone out to buy more or they have been going without undies for a week. PS My concern with calling the police, assuming that they don't arrest, is that given there were at least two serious acts here (B&E and theft or burglary)- not to mention what is was theft OF- is that they will probably put this boy on their radar screen. That might work in your (difficult child's) favor, but it might not. [/QUOTE]
