9. She would have felt a whole lot worse
had that kid jumped in her car and taken off with the entire deal.

Her good heartedness aside, what sort of idiot leaves a car unlocked and running...even for a few seconds?


What if that kid...or someone else...had stolen her car and driven off in a panic running down some pedestrians or crashing into another car containing a mom and her kids, killing them all?


Kudos to your neighbor for caring about a starving young man, but really, her neglect could have been the cause of a real tragedy. Tell her next time to leave the car unlocked if she wants to be robbed, but shut the damned car off and take the keys.
