I want some money for a party with friends....and i'm sure my dad won't give it to me. And i have this idea of stealing it from my dad's pocket. Shall i do it? or shall i restrain myself from going to that party? i'm actually confused between good and bad....

I rather stay at home and not to go for the party than to live with the guilt of stealing money. Stealing is wrong no matter what. Why not try talking to your daddy and be honest with him? Miracles do happen. He may give you some money. All the best and please do the right thing.

Hmmm an interesting but common situation... Caught between the teeny enthusiasm of having fun and the characteristic goodness of not stealing to enjoy... Well, although I'll not tell you what to do, But I'll try to help you make the decision.. Firstly there is a huge generation gap betwen us and our parents.. So they obviously deny any such initiative.. But these moments at parties and with friends are where we build the memories of our life.. So see the weight of the situation.. If you steal the money, it should really be worth the fun.. and more importantly, it should not affect anybody in the house.. Financially... and if found missing, do honestly admit that you used it. It afterall is your money, but accept your mistake. It makes your parents aware of your interests and they ll think of ways to help u and themselves.. Hope this helps u in making ur decision.. Don forget that U ve got to build a good character for life.. but small misdoings are still acceptable.. All the best..

Umm no offence or anyhting but at the age of 21 shouldn't you have your own income? I understand if you are in school and are living at home and unable to work for that reason. If that is the case then why don't you just ask your father to give or loan you some money. Or maybe you could find an odd job to do to make some money. I definitly wouldn't steal from your father if I were you. Not only is it decieptful, but if he catches you he could simply throw you out of his house, since you are an adult.

In India, we dont have a source of income at the age of 21, unlike in US or Europe,where working starts at the age of 15.
