I agree. It was theft. Not hers to give away.
Theft? I’d call it kindness if we’re talking about a 1-time thing.
It was paid for, thus it was a 1 day loan, not a theft. Besides that she knew that the parents would settle up the next day which they did, because she had known the parents for years.. So no one was cheated out of anything.
It was a loan that was repaid the next day......
What compassion.
I guess you have a job with the government, eh?
FWIW, it happens all the time in the school in my district. I know lots of people who work there and know what goes on. It's not that unusual.
The other option is making the kid go hungry, and she'd be criticized for that as well. It's a lose/lose situation either way.

How is it theft when he paid for his lunch the next day as promised?
