Took my little dude to Target so he could buy a Xmas gift for his sibling. While browsing, he lost his $42 he’d been saving up. Same kid found a wallet packed with cash and credit cards at Disney a couple months back, and gave the wallet to the Disney employees —cuz it was the right thing to do. Today he learned that not everyone shares the same values and not to keep cash in a ziploc😞

Ahh so sweet and so sorry.

I wish I new you and your lil dude so I could send him a gift for being so nice and honest.

I hope he still keeps on believing that most people are good people and this one experience does not change his outlook of the world.

What did you end up doing? Help him buy the gift for his sibling or walk out empty handed with just the lesson learned?

I paid for the gift, didn’t want to hurt the sibling’s feelings either.

Hi all!
My mother in law got scammed by a con artist from the UK online and lost $7K (damn you Facebook!)

Her status in the US is currently complicated and she doesn’t have a green card(tho she’s working on it), my wife(her daughter) is American.

Really struggling with a few students in my kindergarten class this year and looking for suggestions. I've been teaching K for 10 of the 16 years I've been a teacher, and have never felt as disrespected by students as I do this year.
