[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 116560, member: 2211"] Ironically, difficult child has a lock on HER door because after easy child went off to college, difficult child moved into her room! easy child required a lock on her door, cried begging me to install a lock on her door, because difficult child was always 'borrowing' her things: perfume, deoderant (ew), clothes, makeup, hairbrush, belts, etc. The odd thing was that difficult child supposedly hated easy child's clothes...that was when easy child noticed money missing and even some jewelry. I bought her the locks. We had a lock on our bedroom door, but we lost the keys, got locked out, had them removed and H replaced our doorknob with one that does not lock. I begged for another locking doorknob, but H refused. I have change jars randomly placed around the house; in the laundry room, in my room, the kitchen, just so everyone can throw spare change into them. Then after I have enough, I roll them up. I have that box hidden under my dresser. difficult child knows this is where it is. She also routinely take quarters from the change jars. We don't really have a lot of valuables. We just don't. But, all a person would have to do to get into our house when we're not home is hit the doorbell outside of our garages. It is a simple doorbell - that's it. It leads into our basement through the garage where there is a stairway and door that lead into our kitchen. I have asked H to PLEASE replace it with a keyed pad to open and he laughs and tells me I'm paranoid. Even with the stalker incidents, you'd think he'd take me more seriously. For our back door, all it is a regular keyed lock, no deadbolt. But the front door is like Fort Knox!! Haha. The windows would be tough to get into unless they just broke them and we have no alarms anywhere. It took me 12 years to get H to install sensor lighting outside! I worry more about her loser friends getting into my house than anything - even difficult child. All my valuables are sentimental items. They woudn't fetch much in a pawn shop. But you're right about the change, card pin, etc. I ordered my new card today and gave it a new pin. I wonder if an ATM will eat it when I forget it has a new pin!! Ah, the irony! I have to go home in 30 minutes and I am dreading it. I hate to say it, but difficult child is so much like her bio-dad it's scary. The pathological lying and petty theft cr@p is just eating me up inside. I always hate that exh was such a liar - about the most stupid things! - and he would steal miscellaneous items off jobsites and garages, things that weren't even very valuable or of use to him. It's like he just did it for the thrill of it. Sickened me to no end. He still does it to and then he brags about it to easy child and difficult child. I am sick to my stomach. [/QUOTE]
