New you did okay, but after the first nice try, sharing etc
the second time you had to go over there in sotto voice "you little shits get out here now, the next time I see you stealing my stuff I will take extreme measures and your parents wont be able to save you" when a parent comes howling in, you say here is your extreme measure, keep your kids from stealing my stuff. This is usually embarrassing enough that the kids will get hauled off for a beating.
thanx,
bill

New Yeah, a more aggressive approach was needed
I'd like to try Trenna's method sometime, that looked very effective. Of course it may only work for her, but it can't hurt to try it if I ever wind up in the same sort of situation. :)
