We had to throw our adult son out two days ago for stealing again.

[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 524238, member: 1514"] Colby, at this point I wouldnt ask if they had stolen the items if you live alone with them. Assume they did and act like they did if you are fairly certain it was them. Actually you know in your gut it was them. We always know. Just state the facts and tell them you know they did it and you want it back. I actually found out that my son wasnt aware that his girlfriend was doing these things to us and he put a stop to it pronto. After all, he had learned the hard way that I didnt put up with theft from him. Theft was something that scared him. I had a camera come up missing and when I mentioned it in passing, boy did that thing show up mighty fast...lol. Now thats not to say he doesnt borrow things from us without thinking. He thinks my house is a rent a center of sorts. He will come here and borrow something and odds are 50/50 if he will remember to bring it back. I cant tell you how many of my tupperware containers have made it to his house and never came back. Or he has borrowed a tool and we had to go get it back when we needed it. Drives his dad insane. Half the time we dont know he came and got it until we find it missing...lol. I look out the door and see him loading up the boat and yell out "does your daddy know you are taking that?" [/QUOTE]
