Maybe the PD can get the case dismissed... then you don't have to pay for anything. I guess if you confessed that will make things hard but it's worth a try.

Update for everybody:
Ended up telling my parents about it.. Life doesn't look good for me in general, but this issue will be a lot easier.
We are seeking an attorney who knows a lot about pre-trial diversion programs and we have some appointments with some.. The chances of that are looking really good.
The only problem is my citation got damaged at the bottom by water after my mom took it, and now we can't really tell when my arraignment date is.. I thought it was one day, but that was a day where our municipal court is closed so that isn't possible.. We called and my ticket isn't in the system yet.
Soo. 250 dollars in civil demand money and at least 1000 dollars for the rest, and another possible 250 dollars if they want the plan to include our offered shoplifting course.. Parents are going to pay it off right away and then... I am expected to somehow pay them back even though I can't work. @__@
Next update will come after everything is all over with.. Thanks for your help and support all.
Have you checked with your local Department of Human Resources? They might be able to help a little...food stamps, etc., while you get back on your feet.
Don't forget what I mentioned before - Salvation Army, Gleaners....
