Hi Confused,
About your friend, Lucy, it might be best to tell her to return the wallet with the money or bring it to the school’s lost and found. Although her family is in desperate need of money, it doesn’t allow her to steal. Besides not being honest, what happens if she is caught? Other people will see her differently and is it worth the money now for a whole lifetime of suspicion? For example, if she steals now, one day, if someone’s belongings are missing, someone could point the finger at her first even though she actually didn’t do it. Also, the money issue is a matter of morals and judgement. It’s not honest to steal money and for what’s right, stealing money isn’t right. You should go and tell her to return the money kindly and explain everything. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Awesome.
