When Lori and Jeanette are growing older, they decide they want to move to New York City to start a new life, away from their parents. Lori and Jeanette get jobs and begin to earn money. They hide their earnings from their parents in a piggy bank they named Oz. One day Jeanette tries to find Oz to put her paycheck in. Instead she says to Lori “Someone has slashed him apart with a knife and stole all the money” (Walls 228). The kids knew right away who had stolen it. It was Dad. When Lori confronted Dad with the news about Oz, he started playing dumb, acting like he had not idea what was going on. But in fact he did steal the money. This action shows that Dad is very selfish and only cares about himself.

Jones realised this and came to decision to trust and help him. At first, she was angered when she was almost robbed by stranger but from further inspection. Mrs. Jones realised that the boy was impoverish and in a pitiful state. She said to the frightened boy, “‘Your face is dirty. Ain't you got nobody home to tell you to wash your face?’ ‘No'm,’ said the boy.” Mrs. Jones felt that the boy truly needed assistance and proper care. It was well advised for Mrs. Jones to trust people that are in crisis as it can determine the future of an individual. Additionally, another reason why it was the right choice for Mrs. Jones to trust Roger is demonstrated from the result of Mrs. Jones’s trust and empathy. Instead of sending Roger to jail by calling the police, Mrs. Jones trusted him and give him a second chance. Furthermore, bring him to her house and showed so much compassion for him, that a mother would do for their children. As a result, it caused Roger to rethink his immoral actions and learn from his mistakes. Mrs. Jones knew Roger would learn from that experience and would not do it again. This is shown when the purse was left on the bed and Roger had a second chance to stealing it but he

Pulling into the parking lot, Andrew recognized the white BMW parked near the tall, oak tree and parked beside it. Shaking his head, he whispered, “I am in no mood to put up with Linda Gunderman’s foolishness this morning, and she had better not start.” Perhaps, I am wrong. He thought as he tried to justify his behavior during the past few months. After locking the silver Mercedes, he crossed the parking lot, swinging the keys in his hand.

Permits a court to order a person convicted of exploitation of a dependent or endangered adult to order the disgorgement of any property the person received as the result of the death of the dependent or endangered adult. The legislation also urges the general assembly to assign the topic of adult protective services to a study committee during the 2016 legislative interim.
