The “snitches” punishment idea is why we have so much petty theft People are pressured to say nothing when they witness a crime. Leave the younger kid alone but make sure the thief remembers that bad stuff will happen to him if he does it again.

The 7 year old is a snitch. No one likes a snitch. The 9 year old should kick the 7 years old arse.

Buddy of mine had his daughter that took a few 20’s out of his wallet when she was 7. Her response was “Dad, but you told me what’s yours is mine and that we should share”. He couldn’t be mad at her, but had to correct the behavior and we got a good laugh.

Two years ago a friend of mine eighteen year old son was stopped by the cops and he was charged with a DWI. He called his mom and she said that he was scared to death. She told him not to worry and that she would come to bail his butt out. She told her son to let her talk to the cop. She told the cop to put his arse in jail and to simply tell her son that she was going to bail him out. She bailed him out but it was in the late afternoon the following day. He never drank and drove since that experience. I saw him a week later and he told me that he was scared to death. The cop put a big guy in with him to scare him. His mom told the cop to put a big guy in with him. She definitely taught her son that driving drunk has consequences.

Nip that in the bud. Make him do chores to earn the $ instead.

Man, I am this close to spanking his arse

So spend the day in your room, no electronics for two weeks, and you still haven't beaten his arse?

No wonder he felt like he could take that money in the first place.

There are FAR less egregious reasons to spank a kid's arse. This one is a serious offense.

I realize I'm late to this thread so someone else has probably mentioned it, but I'd recommend finding a constructive way to talk to your youngest about being a tattle tale. As the oldest offspring in my family with a brother that's 2.5 years younger than myself, I can assure you that if you don't have that talk then big brother most definitely will.

I mean, isn't there a difference between being a tattle tale and going to your parents when you see something wrong that happened and being honest?

It's not like the 9 year old knocked over a vase. It's theft, and $100 at that. That kind of behavior needs to be stopped in its tracks before it leads to worse behavior.

It's telling that so many are blasting the 7 year old for telling than the other way around, and it's one reason the country could end up going down the shitter.

First reaction would be to whup that arse which I would do...then I would explain for several days why it is unacceptable...and I would work his arse off around the house until he got over being pissed about it. 'Cause hes gonna be pissed....but at that age he don't have the staying power to stay pissed....especially when he has callouses on his hands and is dragging arse from raking leaves etc.

Do not let up on him about it. Remind him of what he did and why its wrong. Just whipping him and working him won't work alone....you gotta let him know you are disappointed....if, in fact, you have the kind of relationship where he still cares about your opinion of him. If not its hard.....

Did he do it because he's trying to buy something he feel he needs or did he do it because he could?

If it's the latter, son's on his way to being a sociopath. I'd distance myself if I were you.

Before you discipline the older, you take the younger aside and make sure he understands. Family always comes first. You don't rat on your family. fricking ever.

Then make the younger whip the shite out the older with a belt until he cries.
