I have a character who makes a living as a thief along with her twin brother. She has never known her father but she loves her mother, even if they don't agree on everything. Her mother lives alone in a small cottage-like home. I can not figure out why my character doesn't live with her mother, and why she chooses to steal instead. So far I'm linking it as she and her mother not seeing eye to eye on some issues as her mother is overly religious and my character is repelled by religion due to her absent father. Is that a strong enough reason or does it seem flimsy?

Perhaps she is torn between loving her mother and loving her twin brother? Did the brother start the theiving? If so, maybe she is staying away from her mother so that, should something happen, her mother wouldn't be in the middle of it all?

Thanks, that's a good concept. Yes, her brother started the thieving, so that makes since. Thanks again.
