is it alright to pinch some money from my kids bank to get cigs?

so, you’re saying you’d like to steal from your kids to get a fix on your addiction?

all i can suggest is take the time when you dont have the money for cigarettes as a chance to start quitting.

No if you can’t afford them then quit. Stealing candy from a baby.

ya it’s ok if you don’t do it all the time you put the money in the kids bank.

i say NO because it’s their money
and you don’t NEED the cigs they aren’t a necessity
and they are going to miss it because u r using their money and not yours.
if you are giving them the money why r u taking it back for a nasty habit.

u r teaching them stealing and then when they do notice and ask u what r u going to say to them? no baby mommy didn’t take your money…..then they start lying and stealing from you. and u know what follows, cheating.

No. Try stopping smoking. And they WILL miss the money, since it’s THEIRS and not yours. Thief.

LMAO, I needed that today, thanks.

You could always teach your kids how to steal, that way you wont get into trouble for it

Sure. But make sure you share the cigs with your kid. After all, they did help pay for them!

*Geez people I am joking.

The fact that you are considering it is scary… people amaze me. Maybe when your child is older and “needs” some gum they will steal from you, and that would be OK right? Because after all you need it.

that is their money, not yours so if you can not afford them and need to steal money from your own kids, quit!! By the way, they will miss it, my daughter knows exactly how much money she has saved. Don’t you want to be around to see your kids have grand kids and spend time with them?

Definitely.

Why not? They don’t need the money anyways.

use your own judgement. I’m a smoker, too and I’ve taken out of my sons bank before but paid it back within 3 days and he never knew it. He doesn’t count the money in his bank every single day and so he didn’t know about it.No harm was done.

Um, no. You’re an adult, why do you need to steal money from your children?

I think by needing to ask the question out loud, you already know what the answer is.

Maybe you’re just hoping one person will condone it and that will be enough for you to take their money and not feel bad because at least one person will have supported you on the matter.

put it back with intrest you wont feel ask guilty

This won’t be the popular answer, I’m sure. I’ve done it. Honestly, I felt dirty and ashamed though. It’s such a strong addiction it’s easy to justify even “borrowing” your kids’ money. I urge you to try quitting – or what I’ve had to do on occasion is quit for a few days until I could afford it myself. If you do take the money, you’ll feel rotten. Plus, taking money from your kids shows just how “dirty” an addiction it is.

This is a sad situation. I feel sorry for your kids. Stealing from them. Wow your a great mother.

Simple…No.

Yes! You feed and cloth them, right? It is your money!

wow what a nice parent steal from your kid so you can smoke. really do you not have any thing better you can do•

absolutely not! the only way it would be ok is if you’re in desperate need of food. not cigarettes.
