[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That isn't exactly stealing.  You loaned money to buy a plane ticket to the nanny for her son.  She didn't pay you back.  Now he wants more money for a return trip home.  Stop lending money and only gift it.  Stealing is you are missing xxx and she took it from your home (computer, clothing, jewelry).[/quote]

Op here. I agree stealing might not be the right word, but I don’t feel like these were loans. It was administrative help in booking airline tickets for people with limited English, no credit card, and no internet skills (or even a computer). They often brought me the cash when I booked the tickets in the past. A few times it was a week or so later.

The son wasn’t asking for a loan in this instance-he doesn’t know how to book a plane ticket and doesn’t have a credit card. [/quote]

You lacked good judgement.  You take the to get a prepaid credit card and help them online.  She took advantage of you.  Ask her what kind of payment plan she'd like to pay you back.  No return home trip.  He knows how to book a plane ticket.  He can do it on the phone, buy a prepaid credit card.  Simple.[/quote]
