My 14 year old son ordered a top from the internet on behalf of another friend who didn't have paypal. The top came and he gave it to the friend who said he would pay him on Sat. Yesterday another so called friend texted my son to say he had taken the top from the first friend and was going to sell it. My son said not to be stupid and to give it him back. This boy said no and if he told his mum ( me) he would make his life hell and turn all his group against him. It was worth £60. What do I do? My son is angry and upset but I have told him not to rise to it all until we can think rationally about what to do.

He needs to tell friend 1 he either needs the unworn top back or he wants £60 ASAP. He should not be having anything to do with friend 2.
He also needs to make friend 1 aware that he will have to get you to pay the PayPal bill as he cant keep that a secret so you will obviously be contacting his parents if he doesn't get the money back. That's not being a wimp that is a 14 year old having no money.
