My stepson has recently moved to live with me and my husband from Kentucky, to our one bedroom apartment in New York. He's a really well mannered and respectful kid for the most part.In my bedroom I have a drawer that has lingerie, bathing suits, and my sports bras (odd mix, I know). I noticed a few weeks ago that some stuff was moved around, but I chalked it up to my memory failing me (I tend to have a great memory with attention to detail.) This past weekend, my husband and I were going out of town so I set up the drawer in a way that I would know if it was opened. When I returned home, I checked and am now certain he went through my drawer again.Had it been just the one time I wouldn't have minded (because who didn't try to go through their parents things when they were young) but this second time feels like a violation. I don't want to go to his father about it because I'm afraid he will just get mad about it. I have a good relation ship with my stepson and want to approach him about it in a way that isn't accusatory, but informational and I'm not sure how to go about it. Don't get me wrong, I am furious about this violation of privacy, I just want to try to have a rational conversation about it. Any advice on how to go about this would be greatly appreciated. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2JY99WC
