I got burgled last year by three kids who were about 13. My neighbour saw them running down the road with my bag. They nicked two laptops, my camcorder and my camera. And hence all the footage and photos of my 3 month old baby. Never caught.
Earlier tonight (around 5pm), I was startled by a movement and saw a kid peering through my kitchen window. I ran out after him and there were 3 of them, tearing up the road. According to the police, they are probably checking out if I've replaced the stuff from last year. No idea if it's the same three boys but they are about the right age, fit the description and all the burglaries round here have the same MO. So probably either same boys or some who know the ones from last summer.
AIBU to think that their parents are useless? How could you not know if your kid was nicking so much stuff? Surely you'd see some of it or at least the cash they'd made from selling it? Or do I have a completely unrealistic view of what you can expect to know about a teenage boy? I'm really cross
