DS (15) asked if he could go out last night. He doesn’t normally go out midweek but as it was Halloween I said yes (I have no interest in it so nothing going on here). He said he was going to a friend’s who I know of (ie been there before and I know the name), going w another friend who I actually know properly so fine.
Didn’t see him last night as he got back when I’d gone to bed (dh was up), but this morning he told me that they’d egged a car (who allegedly egged them first) and they’d gone to a park where people ie teens were throwing fireworks (not them thank goodness).
I’m glad he told me but I can’t say I’m happy about it. I thought they’d be watching a horror film w snacks (and possibly a beer as the ‘naughty’ thing).
He is generally a good lad that does well at school but I suppose I’m just a bit sad that he’s such a teen now 😔 I’ve got to take him to an appt after school today so I’ll have a chat about it then (but I don’t want him to stop telling me stuff as then I’ll be totally in the dark).
It’s also a bit of the group mentality thing at that age which is scary!
