Well, they're scaring you with the police thing, but you deserve it. You fucked up, royally. I mean I used to sneak off and read my Grandpa's Playboys, but I never stole from them.
First of all, you need to apologize to grandmother. NOW. You hurt her, but, she's family. If you make a sincere attempt to apologize, and make her understand that you know what you did was wrong, she will forgive you. It wont be overnight, but it will happen.
Then, you need to apologize to your parents. That's the mother of them. So not only did you steal from someone who has probably spoiled you the last 14 years, you stole from someone who raised either your mom or dad. Once again, you have to make it sincere. You have to make them understand that YOU fucked up.
You're young. Things will get better. It's an iPad, it's not going to tear your family apart, but you have some serious thinking to do over the next few days.

First of all, It is definitely not okay to steal. And that is the point that your parents are trying to make you understand. That stealing can definitely screw up your life, if you get caught.
That being said, you are only a minor, which you are still in their care. Explain to them that you understand what you did was wrong, and you would like to change. and with their help and support you can learn the right way and the right path. instead of going on the wrong path.
