what punishment for a 13 year old for stealing at school?




babyfour


My son is suspended for 3 days as he was caught stealing with his friend. They both stole from another friend bag which was $110..His friend said to go halves with my son.
The school didnt call me and my son messaged me and his phone went dead. School finished at 3pm then he didnt come home and i started worrying and stressing and went looking at the shopping centres looking for him, then he calls me at 7.30pm and says he was caught stealing and scared to come home. I was polite to him and told him that was wrong etc.. and he was a a friends house and told me to pick him up at the station but didnt want to tell me where his friend lives. I talked to him about a hour in the car.
My son says its cause we dont give him enough money and he wants more money and wants $50 a week. My son gets $10 a week but if he doesnt do chorus which he doesnt he only gets $5 a week.
He keeps blaming his dad that its all his fault and dad is crazy and will shout and scream and its all his fault. My son has blamed all this on my husband and i said to him to go to bed and we will talk in the morning.
how much does your 13 year old get a week and what punishment would you give your son for suspension and stealing? This is his 2nd suspension for the year. 1st time stealing that i am aware off.



Answer
I would go to the school first and talk directly with his year co-ordinator.
The problem has to be solved as well as punished.
Punishment should be the last thing considered.

Sort out the situations that your son is getting himself in first and then work on how he is going to change his behaviour.

Punishment should not be used to make you feel good but more to make sure he knows how to fix the problem and not reoffend.
The suspension might be punishment enough.

Have given help and even said I will do whatever needs to be done but he just refuses to do work. addicted to video games. very smart and able to do work. As a punishment i have taken away video games but the project is still left to do what does a parent do stay up all nite and do the work? or let him get zero.


Answer
Remove more privleges until he caves. Tell him either he does the work or you will SELL the game and he will not be getting another one. Ground him. If he is still spending time with friends away from home, he is still playing his games. Talk to counselor at school about how to make this HIS problem instead of yours. When you hit on that answer, he will do the work.
We removed the games, the TV, the telephone and the fashionable clothing of my stepson. When we made him get a crew cut, he caved. For each child, it's a different thing. When my sister went through this, it was getting totally grounded, which means Mom drops you off at school, usually in a robe and curlers, and WALKS you to your first class. She brings you a bag lunch and stays to eat with you. She volunteers as a moniter at study hall and drives you home after school. You do your homework, because the only other thing to do is housework, and you know you will be doing the nastiest job Mom can find. If you do not cooperate with the program, Mom will prepare all the meals you hate, such as liver and onions with canned spinach. Lumpy oatmeal for breakfast. Sardine sandwiches with cream cheese on raisin bread for lunch. Since you don't get to go out and your allowance is gone, you have to eat it or go hungry. You do not have phone privleges. You are not allowed to have guests or to see your friends, except in class at school. All your teachers are on board and will make a phone call if you try to skip out. When the police find you, you will spend the night in jail. Then Mom will pick you up, again in robe and curlers, and take you to school. Your life will be an embarrassing hell until you cave and do your work. Weekends are worse. Best wishes. Oh, incidentally, my sister just completed her PhD. She uses the same drill on my nephew. Her comment? It worked for Mom.
