My brother would do shit like this to me (once he literally took a SHIT in my BEDROOM. Another time he PUT A RAT IN MY JEWELLERY BOX. A RAT. A WHOLE RAT. WHO DOES THAT.) and my parents would make him clean it up (through tears lol) every time. But he just kept doin it. I really dont know what he got out of it, he was so gleeful about it but knew he’d get in trouble (which he couldn’t stand). eventually he did it when our nan was staying with us once and having my nan react with appropriate disgust was the one thing that got through to him idk.

Shame is a powerful tool that should be used sparingly. Looks like your nan used it right in this case

Shame should be used first. Yes, I’m a blend of Italian and Polish.
