-- Posted by JordanShadows at 5:40 pm on Sep. 15, 2008 okay so a while ago i got a huge ass speeding ticket and i like refuse to let my parents find out. so i had to go to a lawyer to get it taken care of. well, i have to pay him tomorrow. i had to ask my grandparents to barrow $200 and they said yeah no problem. but then they turn around and tell my aunt that they are going to making me tell my parents before they give me the money. I'm fucking freaking out. my aunt said that she will talk to my grandma and try to get her to understand that my parents MUST NOT find out. what should i do? wait it out and hope my aunt can talk to my grandma? or just go ahead and tell my parents that i got a ticket for going 29 mph over the speed limit and that I've been hiding it from them for a month? -- Posted by sub800 at 5:42 pm on Sep. 15, 2008 shoulda told em. lesson learned. just let things occur, you can't hide the shit anymore unless you're jesus. -- Posted by Time to pretend at 5:44 pm on Sep. 15, 2008 damn sucks for you -- Posted by hotsaucii princess at 5:52 pm on Sep. 15, 2008 next time tell emm or dnt speed -- Posted by MushroomSatsujin at 11:11 pm on Sep. 15, 2008 Tell them. it aint like you robbed a store, its just a stupid speeding ticket. -- Posted by hokie at 12:58 pm on Sep. 16, 2008 Quote: from MushroomSatsujin at 2:11 am on Sep. 16, 2008 Tell them. it aint like you robbed a store, its just a stupid speeding ticket. I assume with the emphasis the OP put on not telling their parents, that the consequence isn't as easy as the comprehension of it just being a simple speeding ticket. So telling them and acting like it's no big deal, when it really shouldn't be, might not be the best thing. But it might be the only thing you're in for. Or else hope your aunt can talk your grandmother out of ratting you out. Depending how "severe" this consequence might be all depends on the advice that can be given. So, JordanShadows, you'll have to be more specific with that for better advice.
