Sure wish there was another way of dd sometimes she isn't such a dd.
Here goes as to why I posted about her status on Facebook.
She broke the eight commandment Thy Shall Not Steal.
The one time I gave her persmission to do something with a friend.
Her and her best friend I only new one friend was going to be with her I didn't know that there was another another friend with them.
So dd calls and asks if she could go to Wal-Mart with her best friend to get a gift for her best friends mom. It was getting late about 6pm her dad and I started texting and calling her cell phone she wouldn't answer, about 6:30pm we get a call from Midwest City Police Department, dd and her other friend was hand cuffed and arrested for stealing.
This is why she didn't answer her cell phone. Dh calls his mother and says I know where dd is she's in jail and we need to go and get her
(if it was me I would have left her there all night). I was ready to ground her (I'm a little more stricter than dh is he's a softy with dd).
I am her stepmother I have had her since she was 3 years old and I have been more of mother to her than her own mother has. I was told to stay out of the punishment so I did.
Anyway, she tried to write a note to confess that she did steal dh wouldn't take it from her made her come in and confess to me. I was very disappointing in her and thought dd could never ever do something like this.
Dh and his mother took off to bail her out of the holding room she was in. She than had a court and pleaded something when it was time for her court date her grandmother paid $700.00 to bail her out. No community service the other girls dad made her do the community service. The only thing dd has to do is find a job and pay her debt than she can save her money. She doesn't have a job yet and has only applied for two jobs and didn't get either one of them.
She was doing community service with her grandmother for the church we go to and all they did was sweep the floor and this is all she has done.
I might add that her best friend took off watching her best friend (which would be dd) and her other friend get hand cuffed and put into a cops car and went home.
The other punishment dd got was not going to the prom when her best friend and friend got to go, she had to give me her cell phone when she got home from school and was grounded from her car for a week (if that was me I would have been grounded from my car for months). She was given a choice a few days later cell phone or car she picked her cell phone. Do you think dh was a little to soft with her punishment? Her mother and I agree that punishment was good enough too soft.
I'm going to add but not get into details that I have took up for dd many times when she was accused of doing something had a meeting with her principal and that was nerve racking enough and griped a mother out for accusing her of stealing her stuff and then the mother later found her stuff in her room. There are other reasons for standing by her (sticking up for her).
She at one time got into the EMO crap that a friend had gotten her into she is out of that now the only things of EMO she still has with her is heavy black eye liner (which I don't like) and straightening her hair everyday.
Forgot to mention that I know mentally this will haunt her for the rest of her life and she has been banned from going into WalMart.
Sorry this is long but wanted to explain. Thanks for reading and please comment.
