Grounded.
Sebastian is grounded for a long time for the following rule infractions;
1) Went up to play with kids at the apartment complex with no shoes after I specifically told him to put his shoes on.
2) Took all his yard sale earnings, $21 some odd dollars to the corner store after I specifically told him to leave it here, and spent it on beef jerky and candy bars and soda for all the kids he was playing with. Nice gesture? Yes. Rule breaker? Definitely.
3) Was told to be home before dark. Mark and I had to go up there and hunt for him just a mere 10 minutes ago.
Groun-ded.

One thing to be glad about? That he BOUGHT all his friends the beef jerkey, etc. Some kids that hang out together would have thought it fun to steal all that stuff. Yes, he disobeyed you but I'm glad that he spent his own money to treat the guys. There's no better way to teach a kid how fast money can be spent than to let them find out the hard way...with their own money!

But he spent it on crap after I told him NOT to take it of the house. He deliberately disobeyed me. That is my problem no matter what kind of money lesson it taught him.
