[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 629009, member: 13558"] We are also easy prey and they usually get away with it, most parents I have heard in meeting refuse to press charges! We don't think along the same lines as they, and because we would never do these things we assume our child would not either. Mine stole from me as a child, and as a teen he helped his friends steal from me. I caught a teen several time checking out my home on his bike and confronted him, both times I knew what he was telling me was a lie. I left my keys by the door and my son gave them to his 'friends'. Days later when my car was found damaged the other two kids told the officer how my son was involved. The teen boys were robbing people at gunpoint, I was really lucky they only took my car. The officer said he just wanted to let me know that he believed the teens about my son's involvement and he wanted to give me a heads up that I had a serious problem at home. [B][I]YA THINK???[/I][/B] With all of that history of deceit I still fell for a con, years later, involving money. Then, one or both, hacked into my computer. All of my personal emails were sent to girlies computer and I was accused of doing it to harass her. That never made sense! Why would I send my personal emails to a person I considered a female version of a devil? I confronted my son and told him I would press charges against anyone, regardless, and the investigation showed the emails were coming from the IP address of a computer in the mother's house they were living in. He still denied it and told me how my harassment had caused him so many problems lol. I also informed girlie and her mother. The policeman gave me the number to call the mother at work, he said she needed to know what was going on in her home. He was nice and I could hear in his voice that he was amazed I had fell for all of the BS. This call to the mother made my son tell me I had gotten the mother in trouble and she was going to be fired. All lies, it was a short civil conversation, and she called me on her lunch hour. There was so much more drama. All of this melted the final strip of guilt I had for my son's life choices and started me seriously looking after me. It is humbling, embarrassing, and humiliating that it took me so many years to 'wake up'. Deep down I knew the truth, I just wanted it to get better. I had blamed my son's lack of empathy and remorse on the drugs and alcohol. They only made the situation worse, I now believe they didn't actually cause it. Don't be surprised if the husband stands staunchly by her side even when all of the evidence proves her guilt. They are master manipulators. (((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
