400 Dollar Braclet Gone


Question Posted Tuesday July 19 2005, 5:37 pm

My birthday was about a week ago, and my mom gave me a Tiffany braclet (if you dont know what that is its like a 400 dollar braclet). A few days after I went to the beach with my cousins and I was wearing the braclet. We were boogyboarding in the waves and the braclet slipped off my wrist. It went with the waves. Now I lost it and I havent told my mom yet. Im not sure how she would react but im scared to tell her. How should I say it? Please help<3 I need it badly.

ok, you need to go to your mom and if you can get some tears in your eyes lol jk. ok, say mom, im really really really sorry but i was boogie boarding and that braclete fell off of my wrist. if you dont tell your mom then your gonna feel bad. and plus if she hears it from somebody else then your gonna be in alot more trouble than just telling her yourself.

hope i helped &hearts; cookierat13 &hearts;

"Mom, I did something that now that I think about it I really shouldn't have done. I was wearing the bracelet you got me and I didn't want to take it off 'cause I like it so much, and I was wearing it when we went boogyboarding. It slipped off in the water and I couldn't find it afterwards. I really loved it, and I want to get it back, but I really don't know how to go about doing so. And I know it's very much possible that I won't, but I want to do anything I can. I'm really sorry."

Something like that, when your mum's sitting and calm. She's eventually going to find out anyway, so it's best to tell her.

Hey,
Wow. Well you know she is eventually going to find out about it. So u might as well tell her as soon as you can or she will be angry that you didnt tell her sooner. So just tell her the truth and that it was a complete accident and maybe she will show you some sympathy.
**much love**

well first off....did you make any birthday money?i might use my birthday money to buy the same bracelet..although the guilt would drive me insane.. your mom loves you and she cant stay mad at you forever...one day your daughter might lose something that valuable that you gave her..but of course you would still love her. so just sit your mom down and tell her what happened and maybe make a proposal that you will earn the money she spent on the bracelt back by doing chores like mowing the lawn, cleaning, etc

i hope it works out

i wouldnt suck up.. because that would make you look guilty... just be honest.. and tell her that you'll do what you got to, to help her out.. hell there might be a warrenty on it if you just be honest and upfront! :)

Clean the entire house, from top to bottom, and maybe buy her some flowers. Then cry when you tell her about it, and say "I am so sorry, Mommy." a lot. If she gets mad, just yell "You're the idiot who spent 400 dollars on a bracelet, next time just buy one at Wal Mart for like five dollars!" or, "Hey, the bracelet might've gotten lost at sea, but I'm still alive!!" After you both calm down you can say, "It may have washed up on an island full of poor people who don't have wonderful things like computers, or food, or bracelets. But now they can sell it on the black market and buy something to eat. Isn't that a happy thought?"
