<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

My friend's son is 13 years old, and has been stealing her credit cards for the past year. He has maxed out both of her credit cards on online-gaming and other things online. He's been sat down and talked to, yelled at, and I think was even slapped once, but he still does it. He has gotten his computer taken away from him, but was able to log onto others to buy more and more games. Recently, he was acting a bit better, and was rewarded an hour on the computer. Within that hour he spent $175, but this time used my friend's debit card. This has gotten completely out of hand, but we don't know what to do. My friend has done everything from grounding him to physically taking away his computer to yelling at him for hours. I suggested having one of my police friends doing a 'scare-'em-straight' thing, but she politely declined, most likely not wanting to air her dirty laundry. I am very concerned for her family, and I love them like they are my own. She is a single mother with a teacher's salary, four children between the ages of 16 to 2, four cats to take care of, a father who only pays the bare minimum in child support, and now she is having to deal with the ginormous amount of debt that her teenage son has caused her. She really doesn't want to call the police on him, but I don't know of any other way to solve this problem. Any advice would be helpful, thank you.
