HISTORY OF THE CASE

According to his parents the problem started when Jonald

Dimalaluan started going with his friend Mikey Timbas, before they
engaged in stealing in the residence of Mr. Daniel Venus , they first did it
on the canteen of Rumbang Elementary School August 25,2017 where
they caught by the bystander and they were referred to the Barangay
Tanod . They tried to escape and about to cross the river but they were
trapped by the resident. They already ate some of the food they
steal.They apprehended by the owner of the canteen, which is also a
teacher in the said school. The teacher reported the incident in Rumbang
Barangay Hall. The two party represented by the parents of Jonald and
Mikey, and the teacher went to barangay hall and talked about the said
issue. They came with amicable settlement and it was agreed that the
two minors will paid Php100.00 pesos each for the food they were stolen.
One month passed after the incidence in Rumbang Elementary School the
house of Sir Daniel was robbed by the two minor.
 According to Sir Daniel it was the second time that they
entered to the house, but he ignore it since he failed to identify those
person. Sir Daniel started to be suspected, and he requested her sister
to observe the vicinity of house, because of the possibility that the
person responsible may came back and happened again. Fortunately it
was happened, the two minor started entering the house of Mr.
Daniel. Without the knowledge of the two minor that the Daniels’
sister because she heard some unfamiliar noise inside the house so
she decided to look for it, when she entered she discovered the two
boys which was Jonald and Mikey she called for helped. Right after
hearing it one of the barangay kagawad responded and it was kagawad
Giwan. They brought them to the police station. According to Sir
Daniel, foods, gadgets, like cellphone, flashlight, and bags were the
things that they steal. During the interview of theWCPD Manere they
found out that they also admitted that they were the one who who
entered at Venus residence last August 25,2017 in the house of Sir
Daniel, where they steal gadgets, like electric fan, watches, music box
and USB and other personal things. Because they both minor, the
police station decided to refer them in the MSWDO.
ASSESMENT
Jonald Dimalaluan was a 9 years old, he was the youngest among 7 siblings.
Being the youngest his parents gave him what he needs and even his wants. He
entered in school with some money. According to her mother they gave maximum of
Php. 50.00 a day for his daily allowance. He always ate breakfast in the morning.
In the family the parents had a great obligation to guide and counsel their children
when they misbehave and unacceptable things. And also the family should set rules
that the member of the family clearly aware and know to avoid doing bad things. The
child need to be fully develop in home first where values and family rules should be
properly implemented. Values and good attitudes should start from home because the
first knowledge of the child was came from the parent’s and whoever the member of
the member of the family.
Also the child has a different needs based on the stage of their age. Every age of the
child has an appropriate needs, and behaviour that the parents must provide
adequate supervision and guidance and develop the sense of responsibility for the
child to become productive, functional and responsible.
Jonald Dimalaluan, needs close supervision, guidance and monitoring
because the worker found out that the child failed to entered the school without the
knowledge of his parents that he escape more often and parents know that he
entered in school every day.

Recommendation/ Evaluation:

Based on the observation and findings that gathered about the child, he
always did the stealing of things but when he was apprehended, the only
solution taken was amicable settlement in the way of paying the damage.
In this situation I respectfully recommend that the client will undergo
community service and series of counselling for his to learn in what they did,
and the possibility to refrain from doing it again. If the solution was just
paying the damage, it means that the parents kept on tolerating the
unacceptable behaviour an wrong doings of the child.
The child need close supervision and monitoring of the parents,
regarding his behaviours because her parents failed to give their guidance
because they were too busy in working to support the needs of the family. It
is highly recommended to the family that the most important was the love,
guidance, affection and quality time than material things. If the family focuses
on restoring the behaviour of the child, other issues regarding the child was
all settled.
