I knew a woman once who had stolen her grandmother's (Her namesake's) identity. The granddaughter had horrible credit...her grandmother's WAS impeccable. Needless to say, if you'll steal from your grandmother, you'll likely steal from others. Can't even begin to tell you how much she stole from us and our friends that were trying to "help her out". I think most of us learned big lessons from her. When we finally kicked her out of our home, she hadn't seemed to have learned anything.
That was the most abhorrent thing I had ever seen, til this!!! Screwing up your kids future so you can charge stuff (or open accounts) you can't afford to pay for??? Good grief!! My warning if you know someone who is guilty of this, watch your own wallet around them. If you'll rationalize stealing your kids identity (and their financial future), you'll rationalize anything...at least in my mind!
