...someone in your in-law's house has stolen your jewellery??? 3 days back this happened to me. And from then i do not know what to do? But i'm really upset. and i need it back. Though it is not costly, it is my friend's gift to me and in that way it is one of my valuable possession! How will you react? Will you ask it directly to your in-law or be quiet. Or pls give suggestions about this buddies.....

I think you should be direct about because you should not let your in-laws bully you and if it is important to you it should be found. If you confront them dont be in their face accusing them, just state that its gone missing and you would appreciate their help finding it and how important it is to you. If they did take it you might be able to guilt trip them. I'm sorry that you lost but good luck getting it back.

I agree with the first responder in talking to your in laws. Tell them that you misplaced the jewelry and your not sure where it is, but ask if they have seen it, and if they haven't to keep an eye out for it as it is a very precious piece of jewelry to you. I think that would guilt them, if they did infact take it... If not, then they'll help you find it! My husband and I live with his parents and his mom and dad have gone into our room in the past, they never take anything of course, but they have gone in there to either lay laundry they've done for us down, or to watch t.v.

i am so sorry something like this happened. this has happened to me before. my cousin had come to my home and stole a necklace that i had. being that she was the only person in my home i knew it was her. if you know who took it from you for sure, i would say something to that person. but you have to be sure who took it.

Hi, cuterose. I think that you should ask your in-laws if they had seen your jewelery. I would let them know that I am aware that is is missing. When I used to live with my in-laws my husband had put a lock on my bedroom door. I just did not want anyone snooping around in my personal things. I just may never know what someone may do when I am not around. I would bring this up to their attention. I hope that you will find your stolen jewelry.

Are you sure that some one had stolen it?Do you know that a particular person is the culprit?If not,search for it again thoroughly.You might have misplaced it.So,before accusing anybody confirm yourself.Because your complaints may spoil the entire family relationship.

Yes i'm sure about it. My sister went to my in-law's house to give sweets to them on diwali(one of our festival). That day my sister said she saw my empty jewel box in my in-law's house!
