Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum.

My son did this to us when he was about 13

These games are so addictive. They can rewire children's brains. His stealing indicates that he is at risk of addiction if he is not already. You need to handle this sensitivly and reassess the effects of digital media on his brain. Then think about ground rules around use in your home etc.

Read the parents forums starting with the post for parents linked in my signature.

As for the purchases,

I believe that dealing with an unauthorized credit card purchase on Xbox can be a stressful situation. In such cases, reaching out to PeoplesBank customer service can be a wise move to address the issue promptly. It's essential to act swiftly to resolve these matters and secure your financial information. Have you been able to resolve your situation, or do you need any advice on handling such incidents effectively?
