A few years ago I was dating this woman and we went to Home Depot. As we left the car I noticed she left her purse on the passenger seat. When I mentioned that she shouldn’t do that, she went into a rage calling me a paranoid nut. I told her It’s her choice to have her purse stolen but I’m not dealing with a broken window because of it. That was the end of that relationship. Some people never learn, or it takes them well into adulthood. It was quite stunning that an almost 40 year old could be so naive and selfish. And she was from LA which I thought meant she had some worldly experience.

When I was in Jr High School, some people I thought were my friends got my locker combo and stole my G&S Neil Blender skateboard- my prized possession….in college, one of the kids that hung around went into my dorm room and stole a watch my grandmother gave me….on and on

I’ve been ripped off a lot. Fool me once…..it took me a while but I stopped trusting everyone including myself

Your kid learned a valuable lesson, hopefully. Use the wisdom and move forward.
