[QUOTE="NicksTiredMom, post: 720005, member: 22301"] Hi. Im new here and this is my first post. I found this by looking up "What to do when my adult child breaks into my home". The sad part is that I feel sure we all have suffered until the day it just all shows that it is too much and we google for help. I am so sorry this is happening to your family. For me, I made his father leave in Jan 2016 and I feel in a dark hole because drugs are a family curse. So its just me here trying to deal. My son would steal my expensive hand bags and sell them in the street. He is 20 and this started at 14. So I was in a position of having to be a loving parent as well as his victim. Finally around December I had been selling my own collection of hidden bags because I had been laid off for 13 months and I sold a $700 wallet. When I went to package it, it was gone. When I confronted my son he simply said he needed money. I put him out. I learned later that he had been here all along living in a shed I have that has power in it. He has stolen from so many people and broken into homes that no immediate neighbors would have him around. Today, I went to wash dishes and noticed a canister cracked in the window sill. I picked it up and realized he cracked that window and put a tiny hole through the pane so he could push a stick through to unlock it and come through that window. The canister was taped together, leaves on the sink cabinet and his tiny stick left on the island. All I want to do is run. Police cant help off of my word and my back yard is fenced and hidden by the shed. I pray your situation gets better. My son is the youngest of 3 but was the only child at home for 14 years.
