I should have stayed for the 'B' game...

So, Friday evening I go to my twin son's freshman football game. Their older brother (a senior on the varsity team) was supposed to be going to dinner with his teammates. Anyway, I leave the freshman game after the "A" game is over, and before the "B" teams played, so I can head home and get ready to go out to Floore's Country Store for the evening.

I turned into my neighborhood, and down my street, and think to myself, "hmmm, that's interesting. I wonder what my 17 yr old son's girlfriend's car is doing in front of the house."

I quietly pull into the driveway, get out of the car, and shut the door quietly. I then open the front door (quietly), and listen. No sounds. Okay, so far so good. I call out his name. No answer. I'm starting to feel relief, and thinking that maybe they rode to the team dinner with one of his friends. I go up the stairs, and see no one in the game room, or his room. I'm starting to breathe a little easier, and really think at this point that I'm AM the only one at home.

At this point, I head toward my bedroom so I can rinse off and change clothes. And, that's when it happens.

I see light coming from my bathroom, and then hear the shower turn on. Just as I approach the door of MY BATHROOM (I'm REALLY picky about my private spaces) I see my 17 yr old and his girlfriend just about ready to step into the shower.

I should have stayed for the "B" game.

Damn I don't know if I have freaked out or what. Well, what did YOU do?
 
I don't know. It sounds like you missed the "B" game only to make it home in time to catch the beginning of a "B" movie.
 
Really, what DID you do? I would have no idea what to do in a situation like that.
 
Sounds like you handled it pretty well - I'll have to print it out and save it for reference 15 years from now when mine's getting into those kinds of problems.
 
awesome response.. about what my dad did when he walked in on me and my girlfriend.

i was bed-ridden due to a knee surgery and she took care of me. folks were upstairs and she was giving my .... a bath. poppa came down to see if everything was ok and then walked out immediately as she flung herself into the shadows.

after she left i called him down to turn out the lights and crap. all he muttered, "she's a pretty girl, john. she's a pretty girl."
 
Good for you. Better than I would have done. I have two teenage girls, and I would taken a 16 gauge and shot off his pecker.
 
Oh boy, shades of what I have to look forward to with three boys in about 10-15 years...

I think I would handle it about the same way. I can deal with teenage hormones and having a frank discussion with him and his girlfriend about sex. I would be really pissed at my kid for lying to me about his whereabouts, though -- probably to the point where some consequences would be invoked.
 
A condom prevents more than pregnancies.

I could tell you stories.......

OK just one. One of my employees got the clap from his fiancee.
 
who was at floores that night, and did you have a good time? i dont live too far from there and its one of my favorite bars. bout the only place i see live music in this town.
 
Good response. All I can add is that I would have pointed out that they should be paying for the protection with the money they earn from their jobs and if they don't have jobs then they better get started finding some. And also that if they don't tell her parents ASAP then the parents are going to find out when you ask them if the kids had told them about it yet. I'd give them 2 days to tell her parents.

But your straight-forward and open approach is the key. Good work.

Bob -

How is screwing as bad as lying? The only problem I have with the screwing is that they were lying about it. People like to have sex. People that aren't ready for the responsibility yet shouldn't have sex but expecting teenagers to all be able to overcome the hormones and the powerful urges they produce is foolish at best.

Older adults and parents tend to forget how strong those feelings are because they don't feel them anymore. You've got to try and remember the days when it seemed like you couldn't go more than 5 seconds without thinking about sex.

It reminds me of that corny line that too many movies use: "You're too young to know what love is!" Actually, the honest truth is that most middle-aged people are too old to remember what complete and total mental, physical, and emotional love is. That feeling when you are completely addicted to the other person in every way. They don't feel feelings that strong anymore. It's impossible for them because they aren't spitting out hormones in such ridiculous quantities at their age. The mental and emotional aspects could still be as strong. But that physical addiction that ties it all together is gone. That's what teenagers feel and that's why they can't resist it. Teenage lust is about the most powerful drug on the planet. And when two teenagers feel it for each other exclusively it gets even more ridiculous.
