    Donating stolen money doesn’t make the money not stolen.

    And the guy did spend time with the kid, an hour a week for 10 weeks, plus expenses (Xbox games, snacks, etc). So he was absolutely providing a service for the kid, it just wasn’t the service the parents expected. I don’t see any reason for the guy to not expect some form of compensation for that.

      I think taking the money was in a good cause, but keeping it wasn’t. But I agree he deserves some compensation.
