and it happens the other way too .... but most people are honest and trustworthy and I'd like to believe that most people can be trusted.

I recently gifted a sewing machine to a single mom who never answered my emails after she picked up the machine. Never even got a TY note from her. One of them had important info about the machine and its operation but nothing back from her. Live and learn. Hopefully, if she kept the machine, she figured out how to operate it properly.

Perhaps her parents never taught her the basics of good manners and she doesn't realize that she appears to be thoughtless, or downright rude.

Perhaps, but she was not a young single mom but an older single mom. I was amazed not hear back from her but perhaps you are right. All I know is that I did the right thng by offering her a machine for patching her kids' jeans.
