All the three attributes listed above are bad attributes of people.
But we do beg for various things to our very near-ones like parents, siblings, spouse or best friends. But what about begging for extra starter items, which caterers bear all through the party venue, in a typical Delhi buffet party? How cheap is that?
But we do borrow things from our very closed ones when we need to attend some function and we realize that we don't have good clothes. But what if somebody borrows clothes for marriage....for his OWN marriage? How cheap is that?
But we do steal those cake pieces and sweets from the fridge when mom is not around. But what about stealing tissue paper rolls from the office toilet or stealing towels from the Rajdhani Express train? How cheap is that?
From the childhood our parents teach us about morality, honesty and other such qualities. I always used to think that all kids are being raised with the same teaching in their respective houses. But I am wrong. There are parents who teach their daughter how to keep her husband under her control like a pet, they teach their daughter how to tell lies swiftly to their in-laws so that she can fool them, there are parents who appreciate their son when he comes home with a stolen good from office or Rajdhani Express train, there are parents who teach their son how to be fraudulent to deceive someone. They teach their children how to be a fraud, a liar, a thief, a dishonest mother and a bad person. How cheap is that?

There are people with these attributes in our society. But when we come across or associate with these kind of people, it's our sheer bad luck. But at the same time, it's a lesson for life too. These type of experiences make us more strong to face the realities of life.
The title is stolen.
@ Purba,

@ LFTOR,
It's an English proverb.
Borrowing is still acceptebale. It requires mutual acceptability. But, stealing an absolute NO NO.
And then there are people who beg for money... it is the poorest form of cheap character...
I have seen people in offices taking out chappatis and sabzis to feed cows, which are mostly left after a party. Most of the people do not bother dumping them in the dustbin. And, there are good souls who try to make use of these left over food, plates, spoons, tissue papers. I think it is better to find alternative ways to use things than wasting them.
Things should not be wasted. Actually speaking people have no respect for things... they buy, waste and dispose of without bothering that there are people going hungry outside. Wastage of water, electricity ... fuel... no end to all these.
Poeple must start re-using everything.
