Would you consider this an "Oops"?

[Medusa]

If Dad is unfairly H-A-R-D on his son, as you say, then probably they'll both learn from this. At least no one was injured. I wouldn't call it an "oops", more like an "oh s**t!"

We all make mistakes. But we need to learn that we have responsibilities (and that we are capable of those responsibilities) when we break the rules.

Thank you for saying this. I could hug you for saying this. This seems to be the point most people miss. I don't know how many times I have come up against the "didn't you ever make a mistake?" defense. And I always try to explain yes I did, and I paid the consequences for those mistakes. Some times just saying "I'm sorry" isn't enough.

OMG Kim, I thought that was YOUR car!!!!

That's a major "OH S*IT!!! if ya ask me!!!!

Oh Sh*t is what I'd be saying.

I'd be trying to help you fix the shed and doing something about the car BEFORE dad got back lol. My dad would figure if I wasn't doing something about it before he came back I wasn't doing things quick enough!

The phrase "Take initiative" is something that was drilled into my brain from a young age lol.
Don't wait for people to tell you to do the right thing, just do it!

I hope the kid knows how to build a shed

Oops is a understatement lol. More like oh Sh*t.
