i'm one of those stupid teenagers you guys are always talking about. i'm almost 15 and last month i snuck out and went to a senior party, then got kicked out when they found out i was a sophomore. i took my mom's car, and i got in major trouble. i just got off of groundation recenty in fact. now, this weekend, the "friends" are going out and we're gonna crash another senior party. don't get me wrong, we're not drinking or doing drugs. we'll prolly just end up knocking over trash cans and throwing fire-crackers in metal mailboxes, then run away when they call the police. and i'm not taking the car, and i won't have to sneak out, just say i'm going out with the usual friends, lie about what we'll be doing, say i'll be home and whatnot. so it's not half as bad. but i'm having second thoughts. why? usually, i'd jump at the chance to have fun and risk getting in trouble. now, it's like i'm scared too. why?

because you're getting older and maybe becoming more responsible. trust your gut and don't go. picture this, you don't go, then you get word that the police caught your friends. aren't you glad you didn't go?

If you know you are being stupid, then why do it? I'd take a close look at my friends if I were you. If that's the kind of dumb and reckless stuff they are doing, why do you want to be involved? You feel like having your mom pick you up at the police station for vandalism in the middle of the night? Seriously. Take a look at yourself, take a look at your friends and maybe stay home and watch a movie. Or go out to a movie. Why run around destructing other peoples personal property? People have to work for money. People have to buy mailboxes. I suggest you go and get a part time job somewhere, or stay home and study so you can get into college and become the type of person who can try to better the world, rather than just some follower who follows her stupid friends around and gets in trouble for blowing up mailboxes.
My other suggestion, is grow up and get a clue. You want to lie to your mom about where you are, then you gotta pay the price when she finds out. Which she probably will.

In your last sentence you said "its like I'm scared too. Why?"
The answer is simple, you got caught doing something wrong and learned that there are consequences to your actions and or that you are and can be held responsible for them, at almost 15, you have most likely not been in trouble before and never had to pay the price, being grounded is a very small price for steeling a car.
The things you describe as wanting to do with your friends, every one can be described as vandalism, and if you get caught you can be arrested and even though it would go on your juvenile record, there will always be a blemish on it as an adult because even though juvenile records are "sealed" once you become an adult, they do not go away and any job you try to get that does record checks will see "something" on your record that you will have to try and explain away.
And now last but not least, are you going to betray your parents trust like this?

permit him sleep it off, possibly make him some dry toast and Sprite, and then supply him a intense speaking to. i think of Labels are for soup cans (mercy) reported all of it. clarify to him that even even though it ought to experience like a one time element, as quickly as will become two times, which will become some situations, which will become each and every weekend. it relatively is the initiating of a vicious cycle it relatively is painful to get out of. He would possibly no longer see the long term injury that one little drink will reason. and doubtless he did no longer understand there became into alcohol (even though it relatively is very no longer likely if he have been given inebriated adequate to throw up). tell him to in no way drink something if he would not understand what's in it, exceptionally if he's with human beings he would not understand. via fact that that's the 1st time, i think of he will understand what he did became into incorrect, and not repeat his movements. i think of giving him a warning will artwork subsequently. If he does it returned, you may take further action. superb of success to you!

Well Im 18 and i know what its like to get caught doin sdomthing you shouldent i found it best to be honest with my parent. My mom is cool cuz she got in trouble alot when she was younger. just sit down with them (or causaly bring it up) and explaing your not drinking, doing drugs or haveing sex ( that usally makes them reize that your a pritty good kid and then they give you a breck) then throw in any extra things like your doin good in school or your helping around the house, then just explain that you need SOME freedom. Usally i find that if you act like an adult and are responsible usally parent give you the same respect! But you may still be in deep water from taking the car... yeah thats a big NO- NO but it will be okay i promise

It is called trust. Your parents trust you to do "the right thing" while you are outside of their control. You are almost 15, by your admission, so it is expected that you will start taking more responsibility, and acting in a more adult way.

OK, if you're serious, you're really not the sharpest knife in the drawer. You don't need us to tell you why; if you have an IQ over 70, you already know. Personally, you sound like yet another bored little troll trying to stir up trouble.
Troll = someone who intentionally posts stupid things just to stir up trouble. If you KNOW what you did was stupid, why would you even need to ask why you're scared to do it again?

Take it from a pro. If your gut is telling you no, don't do it. I did some seriously wild things in my time. More wild than you are planning. I learned very quickly that if it felt "wrong" , don't do it. Let your friends take this one and see what happens.

because your conscious is slapping you in the face, waking you up. you know its wrong, thats why you're having second thoughts. listen to that feeling you're having, and dont do it. you dont want to lose your parents trust for good, really get in serious trouble (with the police, etc), or get hurt (or hurt someone else).
you might want to invest in some new friends also..
