Finders keepers! It's a rule that can be the best or the worst, depending on if you're the finder or the person who lost something valuable. Finding a $20 bill on the ground is amazing, because there's no way of proving who really lost it. But being the person who went to do laundry and suddenly realized that $20 bill had flown out of their pocket makes you really dislike the "finders keepers" rule.
This 8-year-old found themselves on both sides of the rule, starting with a standoff with their dad. As parents, you spend a good deal of time doing chores for your kids. Laundry alone can take hours each week: sorting the clothes, pulling tissues and food scraps and coins out of the pockets, running the washer, then folding all these clothes and putting them away. So when that parent finds a few dollars in their kid's pocket, it's basically just the parent tax, right? Well, for this kid, losing $10 was devastating. That can be a ton of money for a child! They shared how they eventually got back at their dad, and you can read the full story of malicious compliance below.
Up next, get into the fall spirit with some autumnal incidents, like one person who was dismayed to discover that "'Pick your own pumpkins' [are] literally pumpkins placed in a field."
