The option telling him it's "okay" doesn't provide for taking care of the stolen property, therefore, doing that one let's him get away with theft.
I would turn him over to the Overseer which already gets the child out of the lower levels and into safety. Now he just needs to be corrected

How very Lawful Good of you. The worst alignment.
-
Nah, I'm neutral good, which means I'll do both chaotic and lawful. Whichever works for the day.

Sure you are mister I lock lost crying starving children up for stealing what could have been just a can of dog food. Damn, that's a mouth full. Well, not for the poor kid it seems. Who was probably on the run from the ruthless overseer that murdered his parents. The same one you hand delivered him to. [spoiler]Don't mind me. I'm just being my Chaotic Neutral self.[/spoiler]

Chaotic neutral is an interesting alignment, but not as good Neutral Good in my opinion. Neutral Good means one major thing to me: Vigilantism
-
I think that's more Chaotic Good. Also, when I thought about it, I think following the law exclusively would probably be Lawful Neutral... Idk, to be honest my groups never really worried too much about it because it always felt like being forced to play based on alignment instead of your characters personality. It also sort of restricts character growth and development. We pick them at the beginning of the game for spells and such that care about them but unless someone did a thing very against that alignment we don't mind the ruthless Neutral Evil assassin helping some street urchins out or the Paladin making a temporary deal with a devil to fight a greater evil.

If you have to subscribe to one particular alignment then it decreases the fun. I like the system to describe one's actions, but I prefer to paint my own shade of gray than be handed it
