[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 216622, member: 3626"] I'm sorry this has happened to. Honestly, if your drawers weren't messed up, it was more than likely one of your kids. They'd know where to look. The other kids probably wouldn't. You might check local pawnshops. If you happen to know their dealers, it might be worth checking with mothers, grandmothers, sisters and girl friends after Christmas to see who is wearing some pretty new jewelry. My daughter stole some very valuable pieces from me when she was about 15. It took some serious detective work but I did manage to get all but my diamond studs back. She didn't use them to get drugs but to get invited to a couple of parties. Her reason for stealing broke my heart. The theft itself infuriated me. Since I could not prove my child had stolen the jewelry, the police refused to do anything other than file a report. They wouldn't even put out a list for local pawn shops. My insurance company gave me a choice: put all valuables in a safe deposit box and lose my insurance. It hurts when our kids violate us like this. You expect theft and violence from strangers, but not the people of your heart. (((((HUGS))))) [/QUOTE]
