Better yet give it to some poor kid who wouldn't otherwise get one for Christmas.

My 12 year old step-son got caught stealing food multiple times at school. They warned him that he was breaking the law and the next time he attempted it, he would be arrested...needless to say, he got caught the next day. We talked and talked to him until we were blue in the face to no avail. I couldn't touch him because he went to someone else complaining about how I mistreat him if he didn't get what he wanted. Sad world we live in now that parents are in fear of being turned into the cops for discipline that we would've considered a slap on the wrist when we were their ages.
