Did anyone have an experience like this? I was in 1rst grade and was proud of the coins I had saved in my piggy bank. I came home one day and everything was gone except for some nichols and penneys. I told my mom and she told me not to say anything or else. This is the first time I said anything. I still love my dad even though he suicide when I was 9. What do you think about that?

What did he use the money for? Did he have an addiction?
I'm sorry this happened to you, it must have been important to you because it's something that is still stuck in your mind.

Hey there, Too Shy. Sorry that happened to you. I had a sister who used to steal stuff from me all the time. And I hate it when people call it 'sibling stuff' because it went far beyond that. I was harassed, bullied, threatened, violated, robbed, physically and verbally abused, for years. Regardless, I was distraught everytime something went missing and never knew if I'd see it again. Hopefully it was a one-time deal for you, and regardless, again, I'm sorry it happened. It's unfortunate when things like that happen at a young age at the hands of people we should be able to trust.

The coins my dad took were for alcohol. I remember I was so excited to add a few coins and then it was all gone. I would gladly give everything I own to have him back healthy and whole.

Addiction is tough. Sorry you lost your dad. I know you would love to have him back. I know his death must have been very hard on you at such a young age, though it is never easy no matter how old you are. Losing a parent hurts.

It's time to release the past. Forgive your dad for being sick. He was an addict most likely and was in so much pain he committed suicide. I know he wouldn't want you to suffer by hanging on to painful memories. For your own sanity you have to forgive him and make peace with this.
