[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 569335, member: 7664"] Oh my. What if.... what if J found this tape measure to amuse himself in this tediously long line and what if, like so many other trinkets or fidgets he pocketed it (without malicious intent) simply to hold onto it while he fidgeted with the next thing? Was he really aware that the line was progressing, you were being helped and he would be immediately accused of taking something? What if at just six, he didn't know how to answer where the tape measure was without being able to assess if he would be in trouble for playing with it or holding? What if he played with it, absent-mindedly pocketed it, was accused of stealing and needed to protect himself from whatever the admission of that accusation might bring and now he's branded a potential criminal simply because his innocent perspective wasn't taken?
