Also depends on where and what. Kids I grew up around stole random crap from Forever 21 for fun. Grew up, met people who stole to fuel a drug addiction, like at big box stores with a bit more relaxed security. Then there’s commenters here who sound like they just take things they need.

It really depends, but the one that sticks out to me is the kid who stole Pokemon cards from a place my wife retailed. That kid was just a straight entitled POS psychopath. Really, really takes all kinds.
