My House Girl Mistreated My Toddler Son and Stole Our Household Items, but I Couldn’t Let Her Go Without Revenge
I noticed the changes in my child before I noticed the problem. My toddler, who used to be playful and calm, became withdrawn and unusually fearful. He cried whenever I left the room and refused to stay with the house girl alone.
At first, I thought it was just a phase, but a mother’s instinct kept telling me something was wrong. The truth came out slowly. Neighbours mentioned seeing her shouting at my child when no one was around.
Soon after, small household items started disappearing utensils, food, even clothes. When I finally confronted her, her stories didn’t add up. I checked carefully and confirmed that things were missing. That’s when fear turned into anger.
What hurt me the most was knowing my child had suffered in silence. I felt guilty for trusting the wrong person and furious that she thought she could walk away after causing harm and stealing from us.
Letting her leave quietly felt like injustice not just to me, but to my child.
I wanted accountability, not chaos. I didn’t want to hurt anyone or create trouble, but I also refused to be powerless.
