Thief in your Family

When you have a thief in your family
It changes everything
Drug addict?
Almost the same thing; you can relate.

When they visit, you are uncomfortable
Things disappear during their visit – watches, cameras, laptops.
You suspect he has taken them.
Or it could be a she.

Accusations cannot be made.
Things are uncomfortable.
Family get togethers are never the same.
When you have a thief or an addict in your family.
