Reading down through this thread reminds me of Ian Banks, The Wasp Factory.

when I was about 8/9 our cat had kittens, my mother said we couldn't keep them and that we would have to get rid of them. They would have to be drowned in the bog, I played the tough guy and said I would do it no problemo.
I still hear their little cries.
I am a kitten killer

I was 11 and my sister was 9. (you know who's going to suffer in this one, don't you).

My Grandad was staying with us, and he'd been given a present of a little electronic organizer - you'd get them free nowadays, but in those days, quite the gizmo. Anyway, I took it and started playing around with it and thought I broke it - actually all I'd done was changed modes, but couldn't figure out how to turn it back the way it was. I put the thing back on the locker and asked my sister to go get it. When she brought it to me, she was obviously fiddling around a little bit, so I told her she broke it.

she was so upset, she went and told my dad and was apologising like mad. 20 years on, I'm still disgusted with myself for that one.

I learned my lesson - kinda. My Nana's husband died 50 years ago, and she had his watch - a lovely pocket watch. when I was about 15, I found it and tried to take it apart to see how it worked. With the expected results. This time, tho, I owned up straight away. She wasn't angry, she was really disappointed. All my grandparents are dead now, and sometimes when I'm lying in bed trying to sleep, I relive both incidents and seriously hate myself.

Think I was about 8 when I was convinced that I was Hulk Hogan and I pile-drivered a smaller lad in my class into a concrete floor and was surprised when he was injured. His nose was bust open, but in fairness to him, he insisted that he fell to the teacher.

I also bit a chunk out of an older kids leg when I was in second class. He was a big lad and had beaten up my brother the week before. I saw him and just launched myself at him but because he was two or three years older and much bigger than me, he knocked me to the floor and stood over me, choking me. He was wearing shorts so the only thing I could do to get him off me was to turn my head and bite. I still remember spitting out the flesh…..

I hit a woman in the head with a tennis ball (by accident) but when she asked me who did it i ran home. Other than that i was good child.

Kids have no concept of consequences of their actions..... they do stuff, and never think what happens 5 minutes afterwards, and who it effects.

I was with a gang of kids ( not in a gang, just with a group ) this one time.
We started throwing stones at cars, through this hedge.... it was probably me who started it.

Anyways, a bus came belting down the road, and it must've just seemed like a game in Funderland to me.... hit it, and win a prize.
I smashed a window... think it was actually the front window...
The bus stopped a few hundred metres down the road, and the conductor got out and started running towards us..... we scattered like meerkats who just saw an eagle.
Not one of my proudest moments..... was probably only around 10 years old.
I do think about it from time to time.... I imagine it really shook up the driver quite badly.

To pamper peoples feeling of justice, and maybe pre-empt the self rightous among ye, I had been badly bullied before, and after that incident, for a long, long time, by many people...
