Sometimes, teenagers think they can get away with dubious behavior, but that’s often not the case.
This time, a man shares how he and his family’s lives were put at risk when a teenage baseball player threw a ball at his car window.
Now he is wondering if he should press charges against him, or if it was no big deal.
Let’s analyze the situation.
WIBTA if I pressed charges on a teenager for destroying my property?
Last night coming home a High School baseball player threw a baseball at my windshield.
This could have ended very badly.
The school bus he was in and my truck were both going 60mph opposite ways and he just threw a ball at my window.
It was late at night and I had 2 kids in my car.
I have the option to press charges.
He is taking the fact that it was a teenager into consideration.
I want to because I had my children with me and it could’ve been a lot worse, but at the same time, I was a kid that did dumb stuff too.
If I pressed charges on a 16-17 year old, WIBTA?
I think this could be a much-needed learning experience for the teenager.
Let’s see what Reddit has to say about this situation.

True words.
Someone thinks it was intentional.
Just because he’s a teenager, doesn’t mean he is free to put people’s lives at risk.
Lessons have to be learned.
