Our then-7 year old son found a wallet with $100 cash nearly 25 years ago. I asked him “What should you do with it?” He thought a bit and replied “Somebody lost it and they should get it back.” I drove him to the PD and he turned it in. Four or six weeks later it was unclaimed and he got the money. I was very proud of him.

Something similar happened to me. I took the money and tossed the wallet where someone would find it and say nothing to my father. My fingerprints weren't on file at that time

Now, about the Louve...

All that’s missing is the part where Parnell Rigsby puts an ad in the paper.

Great story. Thanks for being a good parent.

Those skills and commitment seem to be lacking for some.
