I had a 58% 14 K gold Mickey Mouse Money Clip my daughter absolutely loved.
I bought it long ago and it was cheap-o by todays gold prices. Took the 20% off discount at the time.

I always wondered where I misplaced it. Vanished.
One day we were ordering food and the 14 year old daughter reached in her purse to pay for it and there it was clipped to a hand full of cash. A wad of 5's and 10s cabbage in her tiny little hand with peeling nail polish.

"Where did you get all that cash" the wife asked.
"Dad told me I can always find money in the pockets of his tux's and can have it all." Yep that's true.

Daughters knit wool sox and they are essential to fit in LL Bean Duck boots. Several pairs on to dial in the proper fit.
Son uses them too.
They borrow our Duck boots, never see them again. Wildly popular with girls.

Middle of the night light shines in our bedroom as the door slowly opens. Daughter opens my t shirt drawer,, lifts out 4 of my favorite shirts.
I'm 5' 11'' 210, daughters are 00 slender tiny as are their girlfriends and my T shirts become PJs for them.
I'll never see those shirts again.

Anyone lose their stuff to the kids?
 
No, that's cute and all, but my kids (adult now) never did anything like that. My kids looked at the other screaming kids in the grocery store like they were aliens. They had no idea what the heck they were screaming about!

My son started working on his own vehicle with me provifing guidance. Always used my tools as he didn't have any of his own. I always told him to put them back where he found them. I'd go out to work on our (me and the wife) vehicles and couldn't find half my tools. I'd ask him and he said he put the there. Never put them back where he found them.

He finally got his own place and I bought him a set of mechanic tools of his own. He still comes to the house as he has no place to work where he lives. He still uses my tools but doesn't put them back where he found them. Now he just tosses them in his vehicle for the next time he needs them. Yep, I still get mad when I can't find what I need.

I guess to make it up to me he leaves all of the broken parts, empty oil bottles, empty boxes, etc in the garage where I can find them. Thinking hard about disowning him lately.
