Gosh Margie, that sounds almost like what happened to my father 60 some
years ago. He and a buddy cut class and buzzed the high school one fine
Spring day (yes, it was during WWII).

I wish I had your problems Jay! My daughter won't fly unless it's to somewhere
fun. My son can't get a medical. I will tell you I know one guy who solo'd
when he was 16 and his parents would let him fly anywhere, but he couldn't have
the car on Saturday night! Another friend got a call from the school principal
(this was probably 30 years ago) that their child had endangered the lives of a
number of students by going off and stealing a plane and .... it went on for
quite a while. The parents informed the principal that their child was a
certificated pilot and didn't steal anything as he was allowed to use the plane
whenever he wanted and that no one was in any danger at any time. When the kid
got home his parents informed him if he ever cut school to go to the beach again
in the plane he wasn't to be so stupid as to take along kids who would talk
about it.
