Really? Since when is lack of common sense somebody elses fault? The world is not going to protect you!  you HAVE to show your own initiative, and take responability for your own actions. Is it directly her fault? No not really. But heres the part people don't like to hear, she still could have prevented it!! Give all your keys to a valet? Insanity. Now he can copy your key AND he has all your home address info somewhere in the car. You might as well leave a handgun in the car to make his life easy. And people say "how did this happen?".

Yes you do have to do all that stuff but it is not her fault. If somebody manages to break into your house, is that your fault? Yes she could have prevented it but it's still not her fault like the original poster said. There is plenty of things we could prevent, and I'm sure this includes you.
Personally, I'd rather not live in a bubble, not that giving just the car key would have been that. But should she have also removed anything/everything from the car that had her address on it? There's just a certain point you go to to protect yourself, and I bet her's is higher now, but seriously it was not her fault.
IIRC, I didn't see the woman on her asking us why we didn't stop the guy from getting in her house, so I don't think she thought the world would protect her. I'm sure like most people she just didn't think that would happen to her. And like I said, I'm sure you're guilty of not going the whole nine yards to protect yourself.
