what should i do? help...

i often lost my money at home but its only last night i confirmed that somebody really stole it. we are only few at home: my 3 kids and a helper and im sure one of them did it, though i don't know who. i feel weak knowing that somebody in the house could not be trusted and if comes a time i will know who is it, it is so sad to know that one of the person dear to me cheat on me. what should i do to deal it without hurting or causing the person shame?and what should i do or say that will prevent them from doing it again? it really so depressing and hurting

    talk to them individual all alone and tell them what you need to tell them and look at them in the eyes and look really disapointed....they are going to know that they did something wrong and they might tell you that they took the money

    tanx bonita. i will take your advice, i could do it to my kids, i mean talk to them heart to heart, but how could i to my helper, we are not relative, i dont want to offend her (if in case she is not the one). what i did now is talking to them in general, not pointing to anybody cause i dont have specific idea who is it.

    i think you should also talk to them individually but then as a group. not judgmental but disappointed and hurtful. let them all now how your feeling and how you cant tolerate a theif and it wont be accepted in your house. give them a choice to admitt it first but if no luck then ask that they put it back where they found it and explain to them that i wont happen again
