Hi I'm new here and have a bit of a dilemma, last weekend I had some money stolen. On Friday £60 was taken but because my 2 girls both had friends round my husband and I let it go as there was no way we could proof who took it. However, Sunday, we both counted the money that left, and yes we stupidly left it in the same place, and went out but when we came back £80 was missing. The only people in the house were my 2 girls and one of their boyfriends. I immediately called the daughter with her boyfriend round, out to the kitchen and calmly spoke to her and explained what had happened and asked her if she took the money, she said no so I asked her to take her boyfriend for a walk and speak to him and say if he did take the money then nothing else would happen as long as we got the money back. I also went and spoke to my other daughter and asked her if she had taken the money, she also said no (she is 19). So 3 days on no one has owed up to taking the money but we suspect it is the boyfriend. Our issue is that at the moment he knows that he is not allowed back in to our home and we have said that it is up to our daughter if she wants to carry on going out with him (she is 17), she is very upset by all this and has said she will finish with him if we asked her to, but how do we move on from this?. Do we let him back in later on and how do we act with him, we do actually like the boyfriend, obviously subject to strict conditions, any help would be appreciated thank you.
