Why Shoplifting Is Wrong

Personal choices are often positive or negative. Like, perhaps giving back to your community will make your parents proud of you. Yet, a negative choice like shoplifting isn’t such a good idea; your parent’s won't be so pleased. An experience I had encounter was similar, a choice between whether I should take an action or should not because of my parents wellbeing.
