    As a teenager did you ever do anything that if you had been caught or if it had come to life it could have altered the course of your life and not in a good way.

    I did plenty of stupid things as a teenager but nothing really bad.

    Have you ever, ever felt like this. Strange things happen when you're going round the twist.

    Boys will be boys.

    Like any young fella of 12/13/14 I got sticky fingers in the local shop, killed another lad and hid his body in the bushes, stole a few pounds from that basket thing they pass around at mass...the usual stuff.

    But happy it all stayed under wraps.

    I don’t know because i think as a child/ teenager you get away with a lot of stuff before things have a serious effect on your future.

    Considering the things I got away with without proper consequences I find it difficult to imagine what could have caused irreparable damage for my life as per OP question.

    Have you ever seen a question mark

    It is amazing the number of people. who say I was lucky I wasn't caught or are told they were lucky they were not caught, It's often used as a way of asking someone to have empathy for teenagers who get caught, or who have to face the consequences of decisions they made.

    However, where is the line.

    To me, the line is between anything violent including spitting any, sexually deviant behavior, and serious destructive behavior, on the other hand, I would have empathy for very minor drug use, minor attempts at shoplifting, and general stupidity.

    Plus there needs to be more praise and celebration of teenagers who just get on with life.

    Lol, I got caught for everything you listed there and yet nothing happened as a serious consequence. You really need to get out more.

    I like that you count spitting as an unacceptable deed though

    If you really engaged in sexually deviant behaviour and there were no consequences there is something wrong.
