There's often a difference between something that's a crime and something that's wrong.
Crime (n)[0]:
an illegal act for which someone can be punished
by the government especially : a gross violation of
law
There are laws in many places that make things that aren't wrong or bad a crime.
Words have meanings. If we ignore that, it's impossible to communicate effectively.
How about we amend your statement to be:
I stole bread to feed my family, is that wrong/bad
/immoral?
The difference is obvious, no?
