So true, back in the mid '80's my house was broken into while the kids and I were out of town. We came back to the backdoor wide open, the frig open and groceries everywhere. I was so upset, that someone stole from my children. If they had knocked at the door while I was home, I would have given them the groceries.
Our landlord heard about this and came over with a trunk full of things he had bought at the store. He didn't get upset when our 45 lb. pitbull puppy left dirty paw prints on his expensive suit pants.
