[quote=Anonymous]OP here- child is 13. Thanks for all the suggestions. I am suprised at the people that wouldn't report it b/c of concern over police. What if your child had gotten caught doing it? If I don't deal with this correctly the 1st time, I would think there is very likely to be a 2nd and I would imagine having the police catch you in the act is a lot worse than the police observing you making amends. I want this to be a lesson my child learns once. I hope the police are not involved, but if they are, they are. I would think there would be some consideration given that child is "turning themselves in." I am by NO means perfect (my child just shoplifted for starters!) but the inclination to keep this under the radar I think would be what would create long-term issues- not prevent them. [/quote]
