    This is very serious. If you're a minor, you may want to talk to another adult about this. If you're not, consider taking legal action. Some ideas, otherwise, are: keep your money at someone else's house, hide your things in a different room, keep your money on you at all times or get a lockable safe.

    Where can I hide stuff (money) from my 7-year-old sisters who spend more time in my room than I do and know all my hiding spots?

  • Question
    I write letters to people to release anger. I never send them, but I hide them. I don't want my parents or siblings to find them, where do you think I should hide them?
    Community Answer
    If you want to keep them, hide them between pages of books that you are sure no one will touch. You can also just destroy them after writing them. Usually the anger is released after the writing and there's no need to keep them.

    How do I hide my lingerie from my parents?
    Community Answer
    Find an old pair of jeans and stuff the lingerie in the legs, then put the jeans into a bag you would take to where you're going. If your parents question you, just say look at my stuff and have the jeans neatly folded in a jeans pile. If they question the old jeans, say it may be messy because you're helping paint or doing hobby work with them.

    What should I say if my parents find the thing I hid?
    Community Answer
    It really depends on the object. For example, you could say you were saving up for something and didn't want to lose your money. Alternatively, for almost all, you could say it is a really special item, and you didn't want anything to happen to it.
  • Question
    What if my sister discovers it?
    Community Answer
    Ask her if she wants you to go through her room to find her secret stash. When she says no, say that you both make a pact to keep one another's things secret and not tell anyone else in the family. If she refuses, tell her the item isn't yours or grab it off her and hide it somewhere totally away from your room so that nobody can find it.

    Use books and hide it between the pages, but be sure no one will take the book to read it. You can also hide it in a frame or stick it somewhere under the lowest shelf in your closet. Again, be careful no one uses this area. You might even use your phone case if no one ever touches your phone.

    Keep the slime in a leak-proof, airtight container and hide it. You could hide it in a toy bin of brightly colored toys to camouflage the bright colors of the slime, bury it at the bottom of a toy bin full of old toys you never use, or you could simply lock it in a lock box. Just hide the key and you're golden!

    Hide it near her, she would never expect that, right? She would look in your personal spaces and not even bother looking in her space.
