I was at my friends house one night for dinner. His mom yelled at me for breaking her vase and I got really mad at her. They kept an urn on top of their fireplace with my friends grandfathers ashes in it. Anyways, my friends mom was cooking spaghetti and when she went to the bathroom I took a spoonful of ashes and put it in the speghetti. Its been 14 years now. Should I confess?

Heck no!!!!!!!!!!!! No one knew, no one ever will know unless you open your big mouth. Nothing good can come from confessing. Move on with your life. And geeeeeeeeeez, talk about an evil ....and creative 8 year old!

No!, you should not confess, what good would come out of that ? None. It was a horrible thing to do but , you were a child..forgive yourself, we all do something we are ashamed of as children, some worse than others , hopefully you are a good, caring and kind adult and as one you should realize telling someone about this will not change what you did and could cause serious mental harm to the family you want to confess to, so keep it to yourself.

No. The time is long past and however funny it reads it was still a dumb thing to do but you were only 8. Had you confessed then you might have got away with it. If you wanted to test the waters you could perhaps use a similar tale to your friend to judge how funny they found it, but I think you'd be better staying quiet. Good luck.

i think you show confess because it's not the mum you have to think about it's the grandfather as well.
you need to face up and respect the grandfather as if he was ur own grandfather.
how you u feel if someone put ur grandads ashes in ur food and never had the guts to confess, i think personally you should come out regardless of how long it has been!!!!

confessing something like this wont be taken likly and there will still be hard feelings after all this time. if she is a close frined and you still want her as a friend then i say you shoudnt tell her. yes you were a child but this is not something anyone should do. this is wrong and if the tables were turned would you be ok with it or would you be hurt after all this time? think about it. good luck.

Well it would be good if you did. I mean its there granfathers ashes they should at least know some of him is missing. Would you want to think that someone dear to you is still "sorta" there and think their there but their not. Confusing but has alot of meaning. Plz tell them it's been so long the 'probably' won't get mad.

I think you should because honesty is the best. Even though I doubt this problem will have much affect on you now but If you tell the truth it is better then somebody finding out later.

Why would you? If you need to get it off your chest for personal or therapuetic reasons then yes...but it doesnt sound as bad as it seems. It was a devious act, but years have passed, and you didnt hurt anyone. Do what makes you feel better.

No, dont confess because what good will it do? Let sleeping dogs lie. it may devistate that family thinking they ate their grandfather. As of now, they don't know and they can go on living as usual. You don't want them to think about that everytime they think of him, do you?
