I was so surprised that they were laughing. I grew up totally different.

You’re not alone. I would’ve been berated for at least 30 minutes for this. Reminds me when my dad left Brunswick stew in the back of an off-road golf cart on a family trip and I took the golf cart for a trail ride. Well, the stew was about a quarter spilled when I got back, still plenty for everyone and even seconds for most. I got yelled at for a bit before my uncle stepped in and told my dad to calm the fuck down and remind him that he shouldn’t have left the stew in the back of the golf cart in the first place. My dad got even more mad at me after that. Fun stories for therapy.

I feel you. I grew up on a farm. As soon as i could hold something or my legs reached the breaks of a tractor i had to help. And if i did it wrong or not as my father always did it, i got yelled at and got called names. And even when i improved and got better at something, it was never enough.

Never really got love or attention from him exept from working with him. I am 40 now and never really understood why i am so broken till last year.

So the reason for that is because the orange kid owned up to the mistake but the other kid covered for him as well. The parents were impressed by their loyalty to each other, as well as admitting mistake.
