So sorry tjis happened to you but lesson learned and at least you know you'll never fall for this again. I'd look into ways to make some money as a way to get it back. Maybe handyman services or help people move

Ok then, why is someone that's 16 allowed to have sex with someone 18 but not 19 (at least where I am)? I understand there's a line that needs to be drawn in the sand, and that's a legal requirement, but people are talking about a moral one when they use words like "gross".

I stand by what I said. Mentally 17 year olds and 18 year olds aren't far apart, so either it's life stages that are the problem (which is valid, since they're clearly in different parts of their lives... but so are 50 year olds with 30 year olds) or it's just the numerical distance of the large gap.

Holy shit 600 dollars for sex? Goddamn that was gonna be one expensive hookup. Here where I live they cost 60 dollars AT MOST with, allegedly, quite attractive ladies (not that I would know but so I've been told).

Putting that aside though, I'm pretty sure those$600 are lost by now my man. Unless you can somehow cancel the transaction (which I doubt because as you stated, this happened last night) I think there's no going back :(

You did not fuck up at all! I mean, I can only imagine the chaos you were dealing with, complete with vomit AND broken glass , while being burnt-out and tired.. you're only human, so off course you feel like you lost your cool, but I'm sure it's not as bad as you think. As for your son getting into trouble in the first place, you can't be on full alert 120% of the time. You can not blame yourself too much, you need to allow yourself the same consideration and forgiveness you would a good friend in the same situation. Thankfully no one is hurt too bad, so try as best as you can to take it as a learning opportunity. Also remember to be a gentle to yourself and allow some relaxation time when you can, it sounds like you need it.

Yeah... Our daughter thought she was a cat for years and was always scaling the cabinets and fridge for food and just becàuse she could. We had a million heart attacks over it but it's really difficult to watch two small kids as one adult normally, plus sickness, etc. It happens, but I'm glad neither kid needed stitches or anything worse and you did a great job not totally losing your shit. A lot of others definitely would have and would be totally justified in doing so. I hope everyone feels better soon!
