17. Children recognize injustice....
Obviously you made a simple error. Hon -- if it had been my car, I would have laughed and then said, let's review this bit of science and see why it didn't work this time!! (I am one of those rare "let's learn to THINK and to heck with "mistakes" -- which are only the gateway to understanding!! Once you figure out WHY you fucked up, you'll never fuck up in this way again. I tell my students to LOVE their mistakes and use them, to be honest about them. I LOVE to talk about my own errors -- I am an expert in errors -- but I strive for real solutions and the truth, and am never content with errors. Unlike, uh, the current administration, which is institutionally ensuring error. - factual/reality, that is. Anyone who doesn't want to scream at this point is either asleep or totally hopeless.

That some bitch "reported" you to your parents -- and that it reached the point of absolute absurdity in that you were falsely accused of planning malicious mayhem when you were just a kid trying out a trick (I remember these clever instructive "science tricks" we were supposed to try to learn some fucking important POINT about physical reality -- and that you would ultimately be PUNISHED fby your own Dad or the idiocy and blindness of others -- sorry hon -- erect third fingers all around to these assholes.

Too bad you had to deal with these "morans". But -- you early on learned a lesson which has been extremely relevant all your life -- that creepy assholes in authority exist, and that injustice happens all the time, for NO reason at all. Might this have been a formative experience in spontaneous developing mmoral political conscienceness? I'lll bet on it....
