Money gone missing from my wallet, what does one do

"Mum / Dad, I don't suppose you have borrowed £60 out my wallet as its gone missing? Has anyone else been in the house who could have took it?"

If they kick of, move out.
 
Not knowing the true in's and out's of your situation obviously but given what you say are the likely consequences of bringing this up i.e. you being shown the door, the only oiptions seems to be to chalk it down and make sure from now on to lock all your possessions in a safe in your room. I would doubt the bloke was my real dad if I was in that situation. I know you say you can't afford to move out but I would if it was me even if I had to live on the breadline or share. Sounds like you have a crappy relationship with your dad. I suppose if you want to confirm things you could try laying a trap with a hidden camcorder or something then at least you would have evidence.
 
blaming your parents is too easy an excuse, I doubt it was them tbh, money goes missing all the time, falling out of wallet, being spent in little bits at a time etc etc, ask them if they've seen it about but I doubt they would take it - I havent had that experience yet.

There's no way it fell out of my wallet, my wallet folds in half and the money is held in well plus my wallet hasn't even left my coat pocket which is zipped. Also i didn't spend anything all weekend, if i spend it in bits i'd have a fiver or a tenner but theres nothing, the money has just gone.
 
say nothing just dont leave cash and or wallet laying around in future what other choice do you have.Tell your dad(if you really think it's him)i was gonna buy you a nice pressy but some bast*rd stole the cash
 
Just bloody ask them! It's that simple! "Mum, Dad, I seem to have mislaid £40, you ain't seen it or picked it up by mistake have you?".

Quoted again for the truth , I mean if you can't trust your own flesh and blood I would be devastated if I were in your position.

Really do feel for you , as already said once your money situation improves I make moving out a priority :(
 
My mum nicks pound coins from my dad's pocket every now and then to give my little bro luncheon monies hehehe but that's all good :p

Normally people leave notes on the kitchen worktop to grab later on the way out or whatever and it's always there. Gotta be hard i can imagine though knowing someone in your house is a tea leafer for the Op :/
 
As Gilly said thats an awful situation not to be able to trust your parents.

Have they had any visitors at all, could it be anyone else but them?
 
I've just gotten home, i've checked everywhere and there's no explaination as to where the money has gone. I mentioned the matter to my Dad at lunchtime over the phone and he swears it wasn't him and then mentioned that it's happened to him too (which is BS because i know for a fact he'd kick up a fuss if it did) and now i'm home he hasn't even mentioned it. I've laid on the whole guilt trip about how i can't get a bike and he's been avoiding me all evening. I don't know if he's taken it but he's acting shifty, i wouldn't have expected this from a 57 year old man but there you go. I'm sure it's him but i'm not going to say anything, all the little favours i've been doing for him are going to stop and once i have completed my MCSE and CCNA exams and i'm in a better paid job then i'm outta here, hopefully this side of xmas.

your dad did it.

edit,

probably spent it on viagra.
 
After speaking to both of my parents they are blaming each other, my mum has had money go missing and so says my dad, i'm so annoyed. It's not even about the money (which was given to me for my birthday btw) it's the whole principle that someone in my house thinks its okay to take money from me. I am 100% sure it's my dad, i gave him £180 this month to cover bills and stuff and he still does this to me. it's bang out of order and i'm out of here.
