Her Two Nieces Stole $200 From Her Daughter’s Bedroom During Her Daughter’s Birthday Party, So She Banned Her Nieces From Her Home For Three Years
This woman recently threw a party at home for her daughter’s thirteenth birthday, and a bunch of her daughter’s cousins were in attendance.
Her daughter also happened to leave $200 out on a dresser in a bedroom, and just a few hours into the party, her daughter realized that the money was missing.
At that point, she asked if anyone had gone into her daughter’s bedroom, and her daughter gave her the names of two cousins– her nieces.
So, she went to her husband and told him what had happened. But he just told her to “drop it” and claimed he would replace their daughter’s money.
“But of course, I didn’t drop it and confronted one of the cousins and their mother,” she recalled.
Her sister-in-law– her niece’s mother– immediately became upset after she accused her niece of stealing, though.
So, she was forced to point out how she wasn’t accusing her niece of anything; she was simply asking what happened to the money.
Judging by the look on her niece’s face, she knew that the girl was guilty, too.
However, nothing else happened until the following weekend– when she saw her other sister-in-law and niece.

Upon seeing them, she asked again what had happened to the money. That sister-in-law spoke to their daughter, too, and the girl started crying.
“My niece confessed and said it was the other cousin’s idea. They did it because they think we are rich and my daughter wouldn’t miss it,” she revealed.
Now, after finding out the truth, she was furious and demanded that her nieces– well, their parents– pay her daughter back.
But her sister-in-law really didn’t think it was a big deal and claimed it was only $200.
“And proceeded to say I make that in less than a day,” she added.
Obviously, though, that wasn’t the point. So, she wound up banning her nieces from her house for a whopping three years!
Once her husband found out about this, he was not happy either. In fact, he just accused her of being petty.
But, she told her husband that she sometimes leaves money on their counters or leaves her jewelry lying around.
“And I don’t want to worry if they come over and wonder if they are going to steal something again,” she reasoned.
Regardless, with her husband now angry with her, she’s been left wondering if banning her nieces from her home was the wrong way to deal with the situation.
Do you think her nieces had a right to steal from her daughter even if she and her husband were wealthy? Do you believe that banning her nieces for three years was justified or overboard? How would you have reacted?
