doug you changed your profile pic. isn't that one of those singing frogs?please post us a url if there is one. I don't doubt the story a bit. I think the accused waited for the best oppty to get in front of someone to pick up the tab.
I've been told I'm streetwise, and for a small town sweethearted girl, I reckon that's right. Been too far around the block.

I'd like to think that this woman wanted to give the boy a treat but just didn't have the money to give him his luxury and her her luxury. So, possibly, in her mind she felt she had no choice. Stinks, but some people have very skewed thinking.

Regardless of the final outcome, I applaud OP for the act of kindness and generosity of spirit. Hopefully, this won't stop the rest of us from helping others when they are in need even if it means risking being conned and cheated.
