We all have done some crazy things in our life times. So I was just sitting here thinking about what the most reckless thing I have ever done. And I would have to say it was when I was a teenager and me and a few friends robbed a small flower shop. I was so scared and didn't want to do it but I wanted to fit in. We all went in the back door and stole some money and candy that was on the table. Nothing major although it was wrong and I knew it then and know it now. We got maybe $70. But that was probably the most reckless thing I have done in my life. What about you?

Peer pressure, it's the root of all evil. Were you caught?
I also was a teen and with friends. A popular record shop, the kind that sold the old 45's & 78's, was visited by many kids on the weekends. Someone dared me to steal a 45 and I did. Actually, I had no money but that's not the point. It was wrong. I never did tell my kids about this..........lol You know, mom is a role model and stealing............not! It was only a one time ordeal but I've thought about it over the years.

No we didn't get caught right away. See at the time I was a runaway with a friend and both of our boyfriends. And when we got caught for that in a abandoned apartment building they popped us for the robbery. So yes we all did Juvie time behind it eventually... See kids never a good idea to brake the law.

Where do I start...lol...I've done so many reckless things in my life I don't know where to start. One thing that comes to mind is when I was about 12 years old we used to jump off a garage roof onto a mattress that we got somewhere (didn't we all do reckless things back then?). It was quite a big jump and none of us thought about breaking a leg or anything that could possible hurt us. If my kids had done that I would have grounded them for life!

Other than the time I was around six playing on a 2nd story ledge of my school. Not once, but several times. Last time I fell and hit the sidewalk below. I must of instinctively knew how to fall because I only had a few scrapes on my hands and arms.
I bet this is common for adults, at least in the U.S. - drunk driving. Knowing you had one or a few too many and still you drive. Yes, it is very stupid and yet I know I have done it on more than one occasion. There is no excuse.
And then there is my grass incident, and I'm not talking lawn clippings. I remember being on my motorcycle coming to an intersection (I took the back way knowing the police would definitely pull me over for being under the influence of something.) I must have looked both ways four times before determining it will be safe for me to make that right-hand turn. It took me forever to get home that night ....

Well, I've flicked a lot of chocolates from my neighbour store when I was child. That's about it. Never stole money.

I used to drink and drive, and I would be very, very drunk sometimes. I was very careful, and never had an accident, but I realized that I was very lucky that nothing bad ever happened. I won't drive now if I even have one drink. That was the stupidest, craziest thing I used to do when I was younger.

The most reckless thing I have done is skip school, I know it's no big deal now but when I was a kid it was a huge deal. I can still remember it now I just knew every stranger I came across knew I was skipping school and that the truant officer was going to find me! About 10 am my mom found me at my friends house the school had called her wondering where I was, any other time they wouldn't have cared lol. Anyway thats about as wild as I got as a teenager lol. -Amber
