My mom found candy i had just stolen. She walked me back into the grocery store and told the manager that i was volunteering to work for free. He worked me for 10 hours, gave me back the chocolate i stole and said, "next time, just ask to work for it". Never stole again. I became the neighborhood lawnower, snow shoveler, weed puller, car washer. I learned.

@electronics_hobbyist

That shopkeeper was amazing, instead of embarrassing you, he called you confidentially and just gave you some great advice...I love that 💯

@iancooper2338

and this guys, is how Alex became "Better than Factory".. Big respect! 💙

@Xaveth

Back when society had values. I remember those times. Thank you for sharing with us.

My father OWNED a grocery store. One day my brothers and I were in the store and we took some candy. My father saw us and asked us if we thought it okay to steal from him. We never thought of it that way. We never took anything without paying again.

My youngest brother stole candy from a store when he was the same age. This was about 33 years ago. Instead of disciplining him, he got no punishment. This trend continued through adolescence. When he was 18, he got busted stealing guns out of a home he thought was unsupervised. He's been in and out of jail his entire life. I just got out recently from being in jail for a year. Spare the rod, spoil the child.

As a kid I stole a bunch of Lego bricks from my friend because he's parents was richer than mine and I had no Legos in my toys. I was purely jealous. His mom caught me stealing because my pockets were full when leaving home 😄 My mum forced me to go with her to my friend and apologise in person. That was also a good lesson and I remeber that even today. I am 43 today

@smiljanickris

This is what is called education VS training

@AIexanderHartdegen

mmhh.. One day when I was 10, I did the same with an apple, I was starving. But many years after, I would prefer starving than pulling this bad souvenir each time I hear story like that. God bless good people.

When I was a kid about 11 years old I was a part of a group that was 3 to 5 years older than me. They were smoking, and I tried that. I bought a 10 piece pack of cigaretts and smoked one of them. I hide the rest of the pack. My mother must have noticed that something was not as it used to be. A couple of days later she confronted me with the pack of cigarettes. She was not shouting or punishing me. All she said just looking direct in my eys was "I am disappointed in you". I stopped smoking the same day, and have not smoked for over 50 years.

@ShaneMcGrath.

Great story.

@jlplumley2

I'm glad you told that story. I have so much respect for you For sharing that story with us.

@inoscopedjfk8207

Videos and clips of yours like these remind me that you are not just another typical KZbinr, but you are also a very wise and genuine human being. Good messages and lessons do indeed stick with a child for a lifetime. Thanks for this.

@Desaved

I stole candy in New York too, the Bronx, age 5. My mother saw me walking back to the park from the store and I was trying to empty my pockets as fast as I could while walking towards her. She saw it all. She was mostly mad because she thought someone kidnapped us, so it was a weird beating of hits and hugs! I never stole again till I was in my teens and let someone else talk me into it! Got caught then too. I since have learned never let someone talk me into doing things that are not in my heart. Thanks for sharing your story. Glad to know you're a New Yoker too.

@zerotrustcartel

I learned a lot just by watching your videos. Not only on the technical side, but also about life.

@bassam1985

My father is also from Lebanon, now we live in Venezuela,he raised me well, people there have good values, i can relate to your story, my dad is like the shop owner that you described, thanks for sharing this.

@NOXFPV

I had a similar experience. I still remember it 55 years later. Thanks for sharing.

@goldmarkg

My father never sat me down to tell me how to be a good father, a good husband, or a good human being. He just lived that life and was an example to me and my twin brother. I owe all my success in life to him. I am certain you are like that to your kids. We need more like you.
