Dad Catches Son Boasting About Pranking a Girl with a Date Request, Decides Not To Ignore Such Behavior

When a father walked in on his son’s conversation with friends, he decided to have a serious discussion with the young boy. He then grounded his son, but his wife and in-laws felt he had overreacted.

After receiving flack from his wife and in-laws, a Reddit user took to the platform to find out if he had overreacted to his son’s behavior. He was still determining whether or not the punishment he issued was too severe.

The original poster (OP) explained that he had three children, one of whom was at university, leaving himself, his wife, his 16-year-old son, and his 11-year-old daughter. He explained that he was proud of his children but felt his son had done something seriously wrong.

The OP’s son had some friends over one night, and as they were upstairs in the OP’s home, the OP went upstairs so he could give them the pizza that had been delivered when he overheard an unsavory conversation.

What Did the OP’s Son Do?

When the OP went into the room where his son and his friends were talking, he heard them talking about how his son’s friends owed him something for a dare he had completed. Upon listening further, the OP was horrified.
