Have any of your children been putting on weight?The kids don't go anywhere without me or their mom so we would know if they were buying anything. Lunch is the only thing they pay for when we aren't with them.
I realize I should have handled the money differently, I let my guard down.
Now I'm just trying to come up with a good plan on how to address this, so maybe someone will confess.
I thought the note on the board would get one/both of them asking what is going on. I could then tell them that I have noticed some items missing and see what their reactions are. I have no evidence that it was either one of them but my gut tells me one of them did it.
My first thought was to tell them if the items weren't replaced by the end of the week that I would have both of them replaced by new nurses...not sure I really want to handle it this way.
FWIW if you go this route (surreptitiously taping) would be best to check this website to see what the rules are on taping without the consent of all parties. In some states it can be a serious crime. Many states have laws designed to stop bathroom peepers/shower cams too. This is most important if you do decide to involve the police, as last thing you want is them slapping you with a charge for illegally recording someone without there consent.Yep, Nanny cam is the answer.

In addition to finding out who the thief is, you will also see just how good they are with your son, when no one is watching. That's worth spending the rest of your FF winnings on.
It is his home and a place of employment. Pretty sure he can record anything but inside the bathroom and be fine, That is different than planting a recording device in someone else business or home.FWIW if you go this route (surreptitiously taping) would be best to check this website to see what the rules are on taping without the consent of all parties.

This is on a reporters website, since so many reporters do hidden camera type stuff FYI.
I was under the impression that you already left the note. Now I envision a note they can still read because erasing never works completely.After thinking about it over night I erased the note I left for them. I'm going to let it go this time since I can't prove anything without making things uncomfortable for everyone. I'll consider putting up cameras.
It's an empty threat. The guilty party will say no, or not show up.First off polygraphs aren't accurate. Second off I am thinking it's expensive. Just get a couple of nanny cams. You can get them hidden in various items. Put one in each off limits bedroom, check when you get home. Pretty straightforward.Speak with them and explain the situation, tell them they will need to submit to a short lie detector test in order to stay employed and keep the police uninvolved.
Can them both and keep going until you end up with at least one hottie.Neither of the nurses are hot. They are in there 50's. The money that was in the living room was in a small perfume box on the fireplace. I removed all the other items from the fireplace and left the box open facing the couches with the $50 paper that was wrapped around the money inside the box. The first nurse saw it yesterday and the 2nd one will see it today.
When I arrived home from work yesterday my daughter asked me where her money was, in front of the nurse. So nurse #1 is aware we have missing money.

Or set it up in the room you post the "Stay Out. This is where all the money's at." sign on the door.The nurses sound like very convenient scapegoats. If you purchase a camera, don't tell anyone else you're setting it up.
