shoplifting.

[Robb]

Just got back from the security dept at JCPenny's. My 15 year old daughter just got busted shoplifting $120.00 worth of makeup. Like I don't have enough problems already...
Anybody been down this road before? Do I need to get a lawyer? This is the first time she's ever gotten into trouble outside of grades at school, but that was just with us at home. So I have no idea if this can come off her record, I'd really like to avoid this impacting her ability to get a job or an apt when the times comes. Or is this no big deal? I know she has a court date but don't know anything else at this time. I'll start doing some research on my own asap but if you can be a help, I'd like to hear it.
If you have any advice or if anyone wants to trade a boy who's into sports for the daughter they never had, let me know.
