if a kid wants cigs they ask for cigs, if they want alcohol or drugs then stealing the whole car or the laptop computer would have been the trick. most drug addicted teens are able to get drugs by selling to other using teens who are not addicted yet. by stealing only the food, not the laptop, not the car, it suggests that the kid was hungry, perhaps abandoned by drug abusing or alcohol abusing parents, perhaps running from abuse. seriously why would someone who wants to feed a heroin habit not steal the computer or the car?
