Getting Caught


Question Posted Wednesday April 9 2008, 12:00 am

Okay so it was April Fools...keep that in mind.

My mom is always pressuring my sister and I about losing weight...and always calling us fat and she makes us feel horrible. We're not over weight either. I'm 5'4 and I weigh 147, and she's 5'8 and she weighs 160.

It was April first and my sister said she wanted me to walk to walmart with her so she could steal some diet pills. I thought it was an April fools joke. We would walk over there go to the diet isle and she would say April fools.

So we got to walmart and walked over to where all the diet pills are. And she picked them up and I asked her what she was doing. She said "I told you" and she walked away. There was security cameras there...you could see youself in them.

So she walked away and I followed her and I tryed to get her to admit it was an April Fools joke but it wasn't...it really wasn't. She went to the dressing room, took the pills out, put them in her pocket and put the bottle back where it belonged. I couldn't stop her...and I couldn't tell anyone...she's my sister...I tryed to convince her not to.

(There are security cameras and telivisions in every isle)

Anyway we got out of walmart and I guess no one saw...but I'm freaking out. I know the security cameras got all that footage because we could see ourselves on the screen. It's been a week since then, what are the chances of getting caught...

I really did get dragged into this...I've never done anything like this before and I never want to as long as I live. What do you guys think the chances are we get caught? I'm really worried.

Chances are that if they didn't catch you at the door, then your off the hook.

BUT, keep in mind, now that they have your faces on the cameras doing this, they WILL be watching you next time, so DO NOT let your sister do anything like that again! At least, if she does, just tell her your leaving her inside and walk directly out to the car.

Legally, you didn't do anything wrong. YOU didn't walk out of the store with stolen property, your sister did. But I wouldn't want to be associated with her if she gets caught doing something like that again.

I am actually more concerned about you girls mental/dietary health. Don't let your mother control your self esteem, and don't let her convince you that you're fat. The same goes with your sister! I have a feeling the whole "stealing of the diet pills" has something to do with her anger at your mother! Tell your sister NOT to let your mother bait her that way!

And the mother of the year award goes to..not even! But that doesn't mean you can't love her. Sounds like your mom has her own distorted self-image issues and she's projecting them onto you two..don't fall into the trap!

Hugs and no worries,
Jasmine

To put your mind at ease, I don't think getting caught is an issue. However, I think that the issue is your sister taking the diet pills. You'd be surprised at what those can do if not taken properly (and how can she take them properly if she doesn't have the bottle)? She needs help (and it sounds as though your mother could use some counseling herself!).

She's out of the store now. Odds are that if they did catch you all...you will be watched carefully the next time you enter that building. Don't let her make this mistake again..she won't be that lucky the next time.

It sucks getting drug into this and I can tell you have a good heart or you wouldn't be stressing it now. Good luck and let's not let her pull this one again. Tell her straight up that if it happens again in your presence you will say something. She has to respect you enough not to put that burden on you!
