Hey Spleen. But wasn't that lying to your parents and getting away with it some and not getting away with it some part of the fun of growing up?

Absolutely. I don't want to sound like I do it every time he leaves the house. And while I've caught him being somewhere other than where he said he was going to be, I gave him the benefit of the doubt and didn't confront him about it either time. Both times he was at a friend's house hanging out when he said he was going to eat with friends at a restaurant, so I didn't see it as a big deal.

I'm sure my parents knew I lied to them on where I was or what I was doing at some point in high school and just let it go. Missing curfew was really the biggest thing with my mom because she couldn't go to bed until we were home. 10 minutes late and all hell would break loose. Oh and drinking and driving.
