I would try to get pictures from the ATM and find out what exactly is going on before you make any decisions. If it turns out it's your step-daughter, I would let your wife handle it. I would also keep the law out of it.

I wish you luck, I have a lil part of me that hopes when you see the pics your like WTF who is that.


Plz do let us know if you find out it wasnt she.

This is of course assuming that there is a camera with that particular ATM. Some of the independent ATM's that are privately owned do not have cameras to record every transaction, and some of those that do, the data often is not saved for very long.

The ripple that it will cause in the family (grandkids) is not worth $250.00.

Live long enough your kids and grandkids are going to disappoint you from time to time

Just my 2 cents

And when she graduates to grand theft, larceny, auto theft, armed robbery, drug use, murder:
just give her a big old hug and tell her "it's OK, we don't care that you are scum, it's our fault anyway for not teaching you about responsibility and accountability."

Some of you guys need to wake up and get your act together.

I'm not sure that you can GET access to the ATM pictures without a court order OR the bank getting "involved." Like I said..... I don't KNOW!

I LIKE the advice of giving her another chance to fess up, with the THREAT of turning it over to the authorities. She's not too dumb to realize what that would mean.

Personally, since she HAS a job.... I'd be MORE concerned with WHY she felt she needed to steal from you. Drugs? Abortion? Something else?

This is a stark example of the differences in our world today vs. years ago when she could only steal from your cookie jar! Heck.... "I" did it! And my parents KNEW I was doing it! They dealt with ME on it.... and I learned a good lesson!

If you CAN'T talk to her, and get her to fess up, you have BIGGER problems than the missing money! :roll:

Pressing charges against a member of your family, especially an offspring, should be the LAST resort!

Here's a "method" she might relate to.... find a movie or YOUTUBE clip that relates to the situation, and ask her to sit and watch it. Leave the room, and give her some space to learn and grow. Instead of "confronting" her..... give her time to come to YOU and admit her mistake!

If she DOES..... YOU will look like the parent you should be. And SHE can claim the victory of making a moral leap!

If this fails, kill her and dump her body in the nearest river! :lol: :lol:

Peter DENIED Jesus 3 times, and yet was forgiven! In the end.... they BOTH knew what he had done, and the blessings of love!

It sounds to me as if you KNOW what happened. Involving the police would only make things worse. This is a family problem, and YOU are the judge and jury. How you handle it is more a reflection of YOUR character, than one of HERS.

Good luck, and I wish you the wisdom of Solomon!

If you KNOW what that means, you will KNOW what to do. IF not.... perhaps you should look for the answer you seek in the book of Truth instead of a trucker's message board. CLAIMING to be a follower of Christ, and BEING one, are vastly different.

As I"m sure YOU, of all people, should know.
