Friday 134: Stolen Car Edition

| Since it's 16 minutes after midnight here, why not? So, my younger step daughter (16 going on 35) decided to take one of our/my cars today, without permission, to "leave home". She got about 4 miles before coming up on a steep hill with a blind curve...and running the car off the road. She fled on foot, but was finally caught several hours later. The taking of the car is a felony charge. We've been dealing with this since May, and I've told her numerous times she's headed for a run in with jail/"the system". Maybe she believes me now? In any event, a most exhausting day, and the fun is just starting. Court date in 2 weeks. |

| I'm not pressing, the county sheriff's office is. I've raised that girl as if she were my own since she was 2, because her sperm donor is a dead beat, wife beating alcoholic. But rant on, sir. Step dads = bad. |

Still haven't forgiven my mom for letting my stepdad her husband kick me out like that. It sent my life into a downward spiral for quite some time.
Story of my life, though - my mom always letting a ty boyfriend or husband abuse or treat us like without standing up for her kids.
Why are you pressing charges? It's a foolish act, no doubt, but I'd avoid making any rash decisions based on it. She's got her whole life ahead of her.
But, as I know from personal experience, relationships between 'steps' are tricky to navigate. I'll try my hardest not to put my kids through it. |

Look man, I don't doubt how ty it was that your mom dated d-bags, but did you seriously blame your life's "downward spiral" on your step dad? You did a ty, irresponsible thing, and perhaps getting kicked out was an extreme punishment, but you need to take accountability for that. Boohoo I got kicked out and my life turned , but it's not my fault! Come on.
I got kicked out once too, and I ing deserved it.
On topic, I took my sister's friend's car for a joyride with all of my friends when I was almost 16. It was her (my sister's) 19th birthday and her friend left her car at our house while they went out to the bar. I figured that gave me enough time to go hang out with my friends and get the car back with nobody the wiser. I even refilled the tank and made sure the mirrors were adjusted, etc. Except she didn't have a full tank when she came over, and the engine was still warm, and her hair tie was missing from the gear shift. I thought "Holy I can't believe I got away with this!" when she finally left, but minutes after walking out of our house she stormed back in, angry as , calling me a ing delinquent and saying how lucky I was she wasn't gonna report it to the police.
Lol. |

| They just probably wanted you out of their home, OrangestO. |

That’s just mean but it could explain why his step dad left his keys in the ignition... |
