[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 195344, member: 3626"] Sadly, I think most of us whose kids are over 10 have had them steal from us. I used to sleep with my purse under my pillow. Some people have a safe where they put their valuables every night. It isn't how we should have to live but it is the way it is. I'm sorry you have to worry about two of them stealing from you. At least I could use some humor: "Alright, who ate my money -- one of the cats or the dog? I realy need to know so that my poor, beloved daughter only has to follow one of you around to check the poop. C'mon piggy critter, cough it up!" That usually got a giggle and an admittng that she took the money. Regardless, I did find that humor worked far better at getting the truth out than discussions, threats, tears or anything else I tried. It really does stink when we just can't trust our kids.
