Report Violation

Are you sure you want to report the following content as a violation?
Q. My mother lives with us. She has a touch of Alzheimer's, but she is still active and still takes care of her financial obligations. My daughter, who is 16 years old, somehow got a hold of my mother's credit card and charged a variety of items, such as jewelry, makeup and clothing on it. I don't know what to do. Please advise. A. First, I would make sure that your daughter gives the credit card back to its owner, advise your mother of the situation and that she needs to keep her credit card(s) away from your daughter. Second, you need to have a serious talk with your daughter. She needs to realize that she stole not only money from her grandmother, but also her identity and needs to make up for it. You can take away her weekly or monthly allowance until all the charges she put on the credit card are paid for. Or she needs to get a part-time job and earn some money to pay her grandmother back. To call the police and get her charged with identity theft may be counterproductive....
