Is This Guy A Jerk For Locking His Daughter's Door Til His Brother-In-Law And His Daughters Were Out Of Their House?

Leona Martinez

It is normal for a small child to take something that piques his or her attention. This should not be considered theft until the youngster is old enough (typically three to five years old) to understand that taking something that belongs to someone else is wrong. Parents should actively teach their children about property rights and the need to treat others with respect.
Even after learning that theft is wrong, older children or teenagers steal for a variety of reasons. For example, a youngster may steal to make things equal if a brother or sister seems to be favored with affection or gifts. Take the story shared by a Redditor on the r/AmItheA**hole subreddit for example. The husband in this story had to tell his wife that the lock on his daughter's door did not get removed till his brother-in-law and his daughters were out of their house. Scroll down to check out the reason why he did like that.
