Reminds me of an almost identical situation I had in high school and it made me wonder: If dad does catch you, and you indeed have an ass-whooping coming, is it OK to fight back? I mean, on one hand, you got it coming for doing the bad thing with his little girl (you'd do the same), but on the other hand he may beat you to death. When we got caught, her dad just looked at me and smiled, like serial killers smile when they think of the people they've killed. I was pretty scared. We weren't "doing it" (yet), but my uh, thing, was in her hand. I rememeber thinking "I can take him", but that might make it worse. I know that was the last time we did anything when he was home, friggin' psyco. God, now I remember doin' it in my formula firebird, talk about uncomfortable! Still beats a stompin' though.
