Youth theft under 5000 (first offence)
I am 14 yrs old and I live in b.c. Canada.
A few days ago I got caught shoplifting $198 of makeup at save on foods.
The security people took me to a room and asked me to lay out all the things I stole on the floor so I did.
They told me to be honest and they asked me if I stole anything else from other stores.
I was really scared so I took out some more other stuff I stole from london drugs.
They asked me for an id card,address,phone number and I gave them all the information.
Then the police officer came and took me to the police station (because my parents had to pick me up but they weren't answering the phone calls).
Later, my whole family came to the police station and picked me up.
I basically "learned" stealing in summer from my friend and I started stealing alone about 2 months ago.
I stole twice at save on foods and I got caught on the second time.
I have no idea if the london drugs people know that I stole things from them.
The police officer said that they going to give me a phone call in about a week and I'll have to do some "talking" with them about a week later, also that the save on food people might want me some money around $400-$500.
And here are the questions.
1.what is the "talking" thing I have to do?(what kind of questions would they ask me?what is it about and would it lead to something else into a problem?)give some details about it.
2.what should I do w/ the things I stole from other times? Keep them or throw them out?(would they ask me for that?)
3.will my record stay forever?
4.I am now banned from save on foods what will happen if I go there again?
5.would this affect my future? What would it affect to?
6.what will happen to me now? Please please please be specific with a lot of details
I would really appreciate for answering to my questions please help me thank you

You know I don't see at any point you are sorry for stealing, only sorry you got caught, I also don't see any comments on parents punishing you,
And here are the questions.
1.what is the "talking" thing I have to do?(what kind of questions would they ask me?what is it about and would it lead to something else into a problem?)give some details about it.
They will most likely give you a date and time to come in and be fingerprinted and/or photographed.
2.what should I do w/ the things I stole from other times? Keep them or throw them out?(would they ask me for that?)
You confess it all to your parents and allow them to decide what happens with the items. If unopened they would be returned, and arrangements should be made with the stores to pay them all back.
3.will my record stay forever?
Normally cleared when you turn 18
4.I am now banned from save on foods what will happen if I go there again?
You get arrested for tresspassing
5.would this affect my future? What would it affect to?
It will either teach you a good lesson, or a bad lesson, I don't see you taking this serious enough at this point
6.what will happen to me now? Please please please be specific with a lot of details
You will be charged with the crime, most likely get a first offender or minor diversion program and do community service and pay a fine to the courts. Next you will pay about 500 dollars to the store
And hopefully you are punished properly by your parents
