Strictly4MyGrind Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Say how sorry u are xplain to ur parents u want to pay them bak. Ask them if theyll let u get a job to pay it off. Then hustle an make tha money bak. And buy a present for ur nan. Link to comment
abcd1234 Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Hmm, tricky situation. Im not going to tell you that it is wrong to steal, especialy from your parents, because you already know that. Are you sure there was only £100 in there? What i suggest is that you just pay back as much as you can, then ask if it would be possible for you to get a job to pay back the rest. If they dont allow you to get a job then offer to do work around the house (washing cars, mowing lawns etc.) for as long as it takes to pay the money back. Obviously you need to apologise and promise never to steal again, but you have to mean it and keep your word. Feel free to ask if you need any more advice. Link to comment
San123 Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Get a job. And you can help but stealing from your family, its just easier that way. Tell them what you did and get a job to pay it back. Link to comment
Lil R Posted November 30, 2004 Author Share Posted November 30, 2004 yea i know, ive tried asking for a job but im only 15. and im not allowed outside anyway to go out with my firends, so i doubt they'd let me get a job! i promised and everything but ma nan still wont talk to me and shes really angry. I just dont know how i give into temptation so quickly! Yea i counted it twice, der woz only bout a £100 Link to comment

abcd1234 Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Im no expert but id say that £100 is probably around about $150. Link to comment

ticklebug Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 your neigbors have lawns to mow (or snow to shovel), dogs to walk, cars to wash, chores to be done...there are ways for you to make money without having to get a "real" job or you can work it off around your own house...doing chores you don't normally do, each having a certain value until it is paid off.
