[QUOTE="DDD, post: 99297, member: 35"] My first experience with "the law" was around thirty years ago when GFGmom was a teen and hooked up with a girl who liked boys and exciting things. I did everything I could to keep them apart and......as usually happens.......that made them closer. One day I got a call at work that my daughter had been taken to the police station. Truly I almost fainted I was so shocked. I knew she wouldn't commit a crime. Well, she believed her friend who said "Billy wants us to meet him at his house after school and left the back door open in case he and his Mom are late." GFGmom believed every word and went into Billy's house. The other girl stole some little stuff with-o GFGmom even being aware. Teens make mistakes when they are with peers. It is scarey but you don't want to beat a teen down over a mistake in judgement because then you are pushing them into the peer group you want to avoid. I agree with him paying the costs. I agee with him being punished. I'm just warning that if you go overboard it can bite you in the...later on. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
