She really pissed me off today! For the second time within a week, we argued over her using my debit card without my permission. Yeah, I understand that she said that she is going to replace the money, but that doesn’t address the problem that’s at hand. For one, I don’t sponsor other people’s addictions…especially grown people’s! Two, she never asked me if she could charge my card. Instead, she just went swiping away. *Lets flip this situation: What if I decided that I wanted to go to the mall with a couple of friends? I know that I don’t have any money and I notice that my mom left her purse on the kitchen counter. So, I ramble through it, searching for cash. Bingo…I find $150! Off to the mall I go, with my friends…& her money! While at the mall, I pick up an Express graphic T and a pair of Nike blazers. After day of shopping “At my mom’s expense”, I return home. Once there, she asked if I had seen where she placed her money. I say, “Yeah, ma. You put it in your purse. But I took it out to go to the mall. I know I’m getting some money pretty soon. I’ll pay you back when I get it.” Wtf!? NO!...No, no, no! My mama would’ve probably busted me upside my head!
However you look at it, taking something that does not belong to you…without permission is STEALING!
