I did once as a kid, a chica who was an amazing friend going through a tough time at home who stole makeup from Shoppers Drug Mart. it was her way of fighting back at the bullshit and even though a really bad choice I understood why she did it. It was a LOT of makeup though, if I recall correctly at least 2 bills worth.
an idiotic move as I told her at the time, they have cameras and mirrors everywhere. she got caught, huge surprise. her parents were not exactly reliable or even all that present and security were threatening to involve police so I said she stole it for me.
my white dad showed up to collect us, smoothed things over and (knowing her situation) agreed with how I handled it. She ended up living with us for a year after that, so the cry for help if that's what it was worked. and me taking the blame cost me nothing, I absolutely knew that going in so wasn't exactly a valiant move.
as an adult I think peeps need to be responsible for themselves. support I'm down for endlessly, taking on ish not my own is not my job.
