why cant i just be let off ?


Because you stole liquor. It seems you still don't think it's that big of a deal.

There are consequences for unacceptable behavior. I didn't and still don't believe in grounding kids as punishment. It's more of a prison sentence for me than it was for them. So I used more creative means:

-A five page research paper on alcoholism
-A ten page research paper on fetal alcohol syndrome
-An interview with a corrections officer
-An interview with a rape crisis center manager
-Attendance at five (5) AA meetings and five (5) Alanon meetings
-A 100 question test that I've created about local & State laws concerning theft, underage drinking penalties and who the local Judges, Magistrates and Civil Servants that serve our community

You have a month to complete. Or, not.
Do you really want to FAFO what would happen next?

@glitterbag,
Actually, I think we could all hear the giggling of trolls in the distance since the original post. The whole thread bears obvious troll-marks. I seldom engage like this, but it was a good writing experience (I am always writing, nearly ready to publish my 10th book and working on my 11th and 12th now). Finding new and different ways of expressing myself especially to (allegedly) younger people is always a refreshing exercise.

The advice I gave was sincere, even if it was just thrown down a Troll hole. But I'm done here. I have more serious work requiring my attention coming up this week. I won't waste further time on this.
