[quote=Anonymous][quote]I agree that there need to be consequences, but I would be wary of reporting the theft, only because so many stores have zero tolerance policies these days, and you really don't want your kid going through what could be a months-long criminal prosecution, even if you think he deserves to "do the time." [/quote] Zero tolerance policies are necessary because kids think it is no big deal to steal. I think the OP is correct. Bring the kid in to confess. If the store calls the cops, so be it. The kid is 100% wrong and deserves to face the consequences of his/her actions. Anything less is soft-pedaling and does not serve the student or the public. [/quote]
