A man revealed that one of his most prized possessions had disappeared from his house, so he checked the hidden cameras and could not believe his eyes. He tried to stay calm but eventually took action.
The man shared that his 9-year-old nephew had a habit of stealing things. He used to pick items from shops, and then his parents had to apologize to the shop owners. Fearing that his nephew might steal his engagement ring, he hid it at a place he thought the boy couldn’t reach. However, his plan failed, and his ring disappeared.
A Redditorposted his story in the “AITA” sub, explaining what happened after watching the hidden camera footage. He had installed a cheap spy camera in his room to keep an eye on his nephew.
Even after noticing their son stole things from shops, the man’s brother and his brother’s wife refused to do anything about it. They always thought their son forgot to return the items.
One day, the school principal called the man’s brother and informed him about his child’s stealing habits. The man felt embarrassed but still didn’t teach his son not to steal.
OP (Original Poster) felt his brother should talk to his son and teach him that stealing isn’t right. However, he never interfered in his nephew’s life until his engagement ring mysteriously disappeared.
