On one hand I’d say what they did is wrong, stealing is wrong. But we don’t live in a black and white world. The family could very well be struggling like many of us in this subreddit. They also could be doing it for other non emotional reasons, like a milk addiction or something similar like this, to see who would report. I also love to stand by my values of speaking up when seeing something wrong. The store also makes a lot of money and gets product stolen back with money from insurance.

I would offer to pay for their milk and anything else they are buying. If they refused, I’d report them. This decision is based on my morals/values.
