Sister stealing from my mom

Anna1212

When my sister goes to my mom's house she takes family property from the house without asking, things such as antique books, clothing, family photo albums, etc.


my mom is afraid of her and won't confront her.  I am planning to confront her but how do you think i should go about it.  my sister is evil, a full blown narcissist, liar, manipulator, gaslighter, etc.  when i confront her my mom will probably cave in and say, "oh, that's ok.  don't make such a bid deal of it Anna"  even though when i have talked to my mom about this privately she has agreed that it is wrong.


i can't afford an attorney and I don't think it is at that level yet but it really pisses me off.  this isn't the worst thing my sister is done but it's wrong and needs to be corrected.


thanks.

You could call Adult Protective Services in and if you wanted to talk to the police and see what they suggest..... You can always let your sister know that you'll be doing this and that these things don't belong to her... that it's theft

That's terrible Anna! On top of everything else!! Just hearing that you are talking to the police might be enough to get your sis to return the stolen goods. I am so, so sorry you have to deal with this. Sending you love <3

Hello B! thanks for the comment. you know, that's true, if she hears I am contacting the police it would probably really freak her out and she might not only return the goods but back of me a little. and police are free vs attorneys that are not

    Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
