Greetings-
I have a issues that I could use some advice on. For about 2 years my sister, that lives a few house down from us has been complaining about money dissapearing from her house. The only two people that have keys to her house are me and a niehbor<<sp. My sister had her locks changed and still money was dissapearing from her house. So three days ago, without me knowing she set up a camera in her kids bedroom and low and behold, she caught my wife stealing on camera, I was too disgusted to see it but I believe my sister. I confronted my wife last night and she denied it until i told her she was caught on camera, then she amditted it. So like all people caught she wigged out and cried to the point she couldn't even speak. Later on she told me that the reason she has been stealing from my sister, is because she feels finacial pressure's everytime I mentione money issues. We aren't in any finiacial crisis, we don't carry a balance on credit cards and are able to save every month, all in all we are in much been finacial situation than most people. So now I have my sister not wanting to talk to my wife and myself caught in the middle of a very sticky situation. I figure the only thing I can do is pay my sister back and have my wife appoligize with a letter. All so because we have a 17 month old baby I feel I have to work this out with my wife, but I am pretty sure that I didn't have a baby I would tell her to get lost. Any adivce would be well appricated.
Thanks

Whoa. This is going to cause a rift far beyond just this incident. Even if you do iron things out between your sister and your wife, that does not fix the problem. Trust is a much larger factor here, not to mention the possibility for an underlying psychological issue that your wife may possess.
Then, to add to the mix, you have a child together which is going to make you question so many things in your relationship and raising your child.
I have to leave this one to the professionals.
