Breaking Out Is Hard To Do, Family Guy
1.Is shoplifting different to any other kind of theft?
It’s the most innocent of thefts, if such a term can be applied to stealing. Shoplifting is often associated with kleptomania and therefore just might be considered a disease. So while still being a criminal offence, shoplifting can also be mental state.
2.Why do people who can afford to buy things shoplift them instead?
It just might be an act of desperation, or a cry for help. People who shoplift are usually depressed or have that ‘dead inside’ feeling so they need to feel the adrenaline flow. A few weeks ago I heard a radio show about elderly people who shoplift because they feel lonely and unneeded. Shoplifting committed by people who can afford the things they steal is usually treated by group therapy.

1.Is it prostitution to take money from someone who is expecting sex, but then to not supply it?
It’s most likely not prostitution, but fraud. A fraud committed thanks to men’s ignorance and great lust. Certain woman use that as a tool and make quite a good profit out of it.
2.If it isn’t prostitution then is it more or less socially respectable?
From an ethical point of view it’s not respectable, but still socially accepted.
3.If it is prostitution then how much is a reasonable charge?
Depends on the foolishness of men.

1.When does a concerned interest in someone’s activities become stalking?
When it crosses the boarder of ethical and sane behavior. When it becomes an obsession, a passion that consumes all energy and attention
2.Are some kinds of observance allowable and appropriate? Which ones aren’t?
Some are, because we all do it. We observe people who are around us, both in private and professional life. We learn their habits and ways, because that is our nature. The ones that aren’t appropriate include spying on other people, trying to learn everything about another person no matter the cost and breaking the law in order to obtain information.

Alex, your comments on prostituion are very informative. You obviously have quite a high sense of moral behaviour. Reading between the lines, though, are you sure you don't know more about the subject, than one would expect you to know.It makes a very good and profitable part-time job, you know.. Take it from one who knows!
