My stepson is stealing from me.

This has been a reoccurring issue. It relates to a thread I posted the other day about dss mother (who is a nightmare will link to thread. However I was thinking about this and I think it needs its own thread.

My dss has stolen £100 from my purse over 3 occasions. Money has gone missing from my dc bedrooms and he has used my dh and there cards online. He is not hard done by the money goes on buying more trainers and clothes.

He is not a thief outside he has never shoplifted as far as I'm away. The trouble is he will never own up to it. Even when I caught him with the money. Then we have dh's ex who will defend him.

Well it depends sometimes she expects us to have him for the most time other times it's she wants him all the time.

You are going to have to stick to your guns and go to the police when he steals again. You know he will as you have already told him of the changing situation at home and he still stole. He doesn't think you mean it. A harsh dose of reality may bring him to his senses.
