In some cases, it wouldn't be that bad if you explained why what you did was stupid.

Unless the kid has the bright idea to do it anyway. In which case, there wouldn't be much you could do to help them anyways. So this comment pretty much has no point.

Thanks, I'll remember this in 10 years time if I ever have kids.

My father flunked Spanish three times in a row, but I pass it in one try with a D and all hell breaks loose. The world's not fair.

At the age of 17, my mom says to her parents she's sleeping over at a friend, gets on the back of her boyfriends motorcycle and they drive thousands of kms to a Buffalo rally. Her excuse for why she'd kill me if I did it now? "Times have changed you know."
