“My mom, who is now in her 70s, will leave her car running, unlocked, sitting on the street when she stops by someone’s house. She spent 45 minutes at my house one day, and when I walked her out, her car had been running, unlocked the whole time. I said, ‘You know, anyone could just jump in and drive off with it, right?’ Her response was, ‘It hasn’t happened yet. I’ll be fine.’ She also keeps her purse, which contains all her cards, her social security card, banking information, and the checkbooks for herself, her mother, and her brother (she manages their finances), in her car as its primary storage place, and never locks it. She also never locks her house, and as far as I know, she doesn’t even know where her house keys are.”
“She grew up in a tiny farming valley surrounded by family, but can’t seem to understand the world is not like that anymore. I have no idea how her car hasn’t been stolen yet or her house robbed. She calls me paranoid for keeping my doors locked.”
