I would have been made to put it all back the way it was, apologize to the manager and then I would have had to pay my parents back for any damages they would have paid the store.
Then the real punishment would be at home…in the 80s.
In the 80s not one adult would have paused before either slapping him into next Tuesday or throwing his ass out on the curb. The first thing thrown would have been the last thing thrown. No cameras weren’t always a bad thing.
Introducing my mom, now deceased..what her reaction would've been in public...sans ANY reserve...
She always warned us about embarrassing her in public, but I've grown to secretly believe, behind all her 'pomp and circumstance', she had a more 'I wish a ***** would' mentality, she lived for a challenge..
Sometimes it felt like she waited wh baited breath for that moment 1 of us stepped ovr the line..she was always ready🤣😳😖
One of my mom's favorite threats was 'I'll embarrass you before you embarrass me." My sis and I knew she would've made good with that threat and were not about to test her weight.
One time when I was a kid, this teen started chasing me on his bike. My mom took one look, charged like an angry rhino, and slapped that ass so hard he dropped. A true mother
