The context to this is I was 9 years old and it was the no man’s land time between Xmas and Nee Year - so let’s say around December 29th?
I had a mad crush on a boy at the time and I wrote a letter and rang someone’s doorbell I knew 2 streets away and gave it to the woman of the house who had kids roughly my age - I’d signed letter with the boys unusual surname. I wrote another letter and signed it with a completely different surname
After i delivered the letters I walked home knowing I’d made a huge mistake
That evening my doorbell rang and the husband and wife from the house in question were both at the door with the letters in hand and came into speak to my parents
I got a huge telling off and dressing down by my parents and felt very mortified and embarrassed about the whole thing. There was such a bad atmosphere in the house I actually begged for the cleaner to come the next day 😭 - but she didn’t cos Xmas hols
Just to say the content of my letters wasn’t in any way rude or offensive
AIBU to think the adults in this situation went too far?
