Tough love will have to be employed. Call the police. Ir would be nice if you could have an officer talk some sense into them. Allow them to spend a few nights in lock up. Hopefully that helps.
They need counseling.
Mother….I know you don’t want to hear this but he may have started stealing to survive before you sent for him, it’s a learned behavior. I know you are a trying hard working mother but sometimes these are the repercussions of having children that we are no able to care for and not having a foundation from their birth. I know that even when you are financially off things still happen but poor people have it triple hard and some times it’s a toss up how the children turn out. Mother, maybe some counseling with him will help and hugging him and letting him know you love him and want to ensure he has a future. Mother please don’t let these children feel obligated that you married someone you didn’t love because you wanted to “help them” they didn’t ask to be here and it’s you and their father’s responsibility to love, guide and protect them from the world until they are mature enough to fend for themselves. This attitude of obligation can sometimes make children resentful. God Bless you, I know it is hard.
Have a pastor, a friend or a policeman talk to him. Trim di tree wen it young before it spread. Wishing you all the best.
If he doesn’t wanna hear send him go back a jamaica for a while simple and don’t look at him cause the difference he’s gonna see will probably help him !!
She already left him to sleep on a floor for years without seeing him.
send him back to jamaica if him want turn theif a fi him business dat or wait till him reach 18 u send him back simpe some kids are too ungrateful and damm disgusting
Yea sure send her child back n give up… cause she basically didn’t raise him anyway… she’s a shitty mom that’s the reality, n she blames her kids for her having to marry someone she didn’t want to all so he could pay for her n her kids.. she’s a waste woman
Don’t follow these people saying send him back. All manner of evil happen to kids who get left out here by their parents. He needs counselling as he probably learned to steal when he was with his grandparents living on the floor. It’s probably become something he has become so accustomed to he can’t stop without some proper guidance.
You left your son for other people to raise him you didn’t see him for years.. then u blame the kids for u having to marry someone u didn’t want to all so he can pay for u n ya kids. What a disgrace, u wonder why your kid is so bad? Because you failed as a parent that’s the reality. He slept on the floor like a dog n u didn’t know for years.. I feel bad for your son.
Did you not read where the woman said she sent money to buy bed for her child? She left the child with his father who is 50% responsible for the child, what more could she have done. ? The woman was looking to get a better life for she and her children and had to migrate to another country as perhaps she would not have had the chance to do so in jamaica. The issue of the child ( children) stealing might be based on the fact that when he was with the father and grandparents he had to steal due to hunger or the need for clothes and shoes. Either way he needs councelling and if that doesnt work he needs to be told in no uncertain way that thieves eventually ends up in prison or dead..
