Lady Left Confused After Discovering That Her Mom And Brother Took Her Money Despite She Paying Most Of Their Bills, Asks Them For A Refund
Taking something that doesn't belong to you without permission is considered stealing. When we think of "stealing," we frequently picture burglars storming into our houses or shoplifters attempting to carry expensive items out of a store.
We imagine career criminals or thieves who steal for dishonest financial gain. A person may steal for a variety of different reasons in addition to kleptomania.
Due to their inability to make ends meet, some people steal. Some people steal just for the rush, while others do it to make up for a physical or emotional gap in their lives.
Jealousy, low self-esteem, or peer pressure are all potential motivators for stealing. Stealing can also be a result of social concerns, like feeling alienated or unappreciated.
It's possible for someone to steal to express their independence, to rebel against their family or friends, or simply because they don't value themselves or other people. In today's story, the OP's mom and brother stole from her despite her covering 90% of the bills.
She left $300 in an envelope, hoping she could just eventually go to the bank and deposit it into her account. The OP's dog had a vet emergency, and her main card wasn’t available since it expired and her bank was sending her a new one.
She arrived only to discover that there was only $50 remaining in the envelope.
