The partner was also arrested. So it would seem only the 2 young children are homeless. Which is why I thought it strange the op didn't mention them.

I very much doubt either would be kept in custody, if that's what you mean, as in home now being a cell in a police station.

I would have thought that stealing from a parent whilst under the same roof is treated more as a domestic situation than say breaking in.

She hasn't PM'd me and I offered to give a gift. Shame I am so gullible and believe everything I am told!

Its not like that, its very good of you to offer, none of us know the OPs real situation like I said before it is possible this appalling incident has happen to her. I nearly offered to give a gift myself but decided to read the past posts first. I am a very suspicious person and I am just glad that not everyone is like me.

Its not a shame, your first instinct was to be generous and help out somebody who said they were in need. That's a good thing!

What's a shame is that there are people out there willing to exploit your good nature, they're the problem, not you.

yes my son did rob me this time last year this is why my title of the post is ive done it again. I have a 16year old living at home a boy a 11 year old girl living at home a 8 year old girl living at home a 22 year old in uni a 19 year old in uni and a 21 year old living in west wales 200 miles away from me. I am not a scam I have 7 children in total if you count the 23 year ld that keeps stealing from me. I took him and his girlfriend in to stay at my home as they were homeless and they do this to me again. he only managed to get my 8 year old daughters Christmas presents as they were the only ones that were in my bedroom as my 11 year old and 16 year olds are up the attic and they are mostly clothes due to their ages. but my 8 year old had toys ect. we have a small lock on the attic door as it keeps blowing up so he could not of got in there without making a noise.i am so upset that I have allowed him access to do this to us again.

Assuming what you say is true, I'm sure you can see why its not appropriate to allow posters from this forum to send you expensive toys and gifts?

The advice to get in touch with the Salvation Army or other charities is good, I hope they are able to help you.

With so many children they should have a healthy income, from work and/ or benefits. If they are unable to manage they might be best to post on the Debt free Wannabe board, get some help with budgeting?

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me - and that's where you are unfortunately. There is no way you can ever let this happen again; you have younger children you need to protect and they have to come first.

Its difficult to turn your back on someone you deeply love and care for but do not actually like. But its something you have to do and I am glad that its not me in that situation.

I hope you can sort something out for your DD.

Ziptia, assuming you haven't done your christmas food shopping yet can you cut massively back on that and spend the difference on 8 year old. I'm sure people on here will have many canny ways in which you can raise £10 to £20 to get youngest some pressies

The OP has been on and explained her situation and has also nobody has piped up that she has sent them her address. she clearly stated in her last post she just wanted emotional support so shame on the people who are still questioning her.

and jacques_chirac, your post is just offensive, it has nothing to do with you or this post what her income is or how many benefits she gets.

I am quite surprised at some of the people on this post!

anyway OP just wanted to say I am truly sorry this has happened to you, it must be heartbreaking especially when it's your own son. I suppose lets be grateful for small mercies which is the fact that he didn't get all your other children's presents too. hope you find a way to work things out. xx
