Back in the day when your only source of income was pocket money, I think it's fair to admit that once or twice you secretly dipped your hand into your mum's purse. A small fee of £10 or £20 was taken to kick off the day's festivities, investing it wisely so you can enjoy some time with your mates.
Now and again you'd be collared for it, but the biggest punishment would be a week's pocket money being docked to pay it back.
This kid rather took the piss when nabbing a bit of his mother's money - taking her credit card to go and buy himself a new Playstation 4.

Returning to his mum's car, she asks him what he's lashed money on. When she realises what it is he asks him to return it, to which he politely replies: "No, fuck that, I've always wanted this."
The context of the video is a bit warped, but seems as if he's come into a bit of money, presumably after his birthday. However, given that getting $500 for your birthday is basically unheard of, he took the credit card to make up the extra pennies.

After his ma repeatedly asks him for the receipt to get to the bottom of the actual price, he decides to try and swallow it so there's absolutely no chance of it being returned.

Eventually she grabs hold of the bill and her kid, acting out of fear, gets out of the car and fucks right off. Filming from the back seat, another one of her sons asks how much he spent: "500-fucking-dollars," she replies.
The clip ends with her screaming the price, and undoubtedly returning the kid's console.
The Twitter replies to the video sum it up nicely.

Other extreme money-stealing schemes...
This six-year-old went a bit more under the radar than straight up using her parent's credit card, and instead displayed actions that any of us would have been proud of in our younger years.
Ashlynd Howell managed to spend £200 of her mum's money on Amazon. But to gain access to her parent's account she had to get on to her mum's phone.
To do so, she waited until the person who brought her into this world, Bethany, fell asleep on the sofa, and then used her thumb to get past Apple's touch ID. Ruthless.

Bethany was then very confused when she eventually got asked by her husband why they'd been sent a bill for $250 (£203).
"I said, 'What are you talking about? I didn't purchase anything'. We thought we'd been hacked at first," she told BuzzFeed.
They took a look at their previous purchases from Amazon and found that Ashlynd had bought 13 Pokémon toys.
When Bethany confronted her, she said: "Yeah, mommy! I was shopping. But don't worry, all of it is going to come straight to the house."

Bethany and her husband had to have a little sit down with their offspring and explain why what she had done was wrong, and presumably tell her that using her mum's thumbprint to get onto her phone was the work of an evil genius.
It turned out that only four of the toys were refundable, but since the unplanned spree occurred before Bethany had started Christmas shopping, she told Ashlynd that Santa had intercepted the toys and he'd bring them on Christmas day.
All's well that ends well, I guess.
