And you were suitably punished I hope?
The thing is that when you have parents like DG and Sweary who are open-minded, free-thinking and willing to give you some freedom in spreading your teenage wings, to repay them in such a way is downright despicable.

No, we weren't ever really punished beyond having a serious talk about stuff.
My parents were trendy liberals and we were left to do what we wanted, to quite an extent. I never got grounded - but then I never really got caught. Except for once when I had 15 foil-wrapped hash cakes in my wardrobe. Even then I was a criminal genius:

'Why have you got them, and in such large quantities?'

'I don't smoke, do I?'

Davros. Take a good look at Monty and his life.
If you don't crack down on SJ hard, this is what he will end up like.

That's a fair point.

I have already said in no uncertain terms
that I don't give a shit what he does when he leaves school, but doing nothing whilst living in our house is not an option.

As BGB says
We are quite liberal with him. Some of his mates are given a hard time by their parents for nothing; others parents just don't seem to give a shit either way. They all say they love coming to ours because of how relaxed it is, and this is our reward for being cool with them.

Little fuckstarts.
