Over the weekend I had the "pleasure" of learning the pain I put my parents through when I was in high school. I am only 20 now but my parents were out of town for the weekend and I was keeping an eye on the house and my 17 year old brother. I got a call from the EMS here and since I did not get to the phone in time they left me a message to call 911, not telling me what had happened. But you know when your phone rings at like midnight something bad happened to someone you love. I called them back and was told that they were trying to get a parent of a minor who had been in a car accident to find out medically to treat him. Of course by now I am freaking out, cannot get ahold of my brother and have no clue what to do. Finally after about 10 horrible minutes my dad calls and says my brother was in a wreck but he is ok. That was the longest 10 minutes of my life.... I feel horrible if I ever worried my parents like that. I know they never got any calls in the middle of the night from me but I am sure they worried. So for all the parents who have teenagers right now... I am sorry if they keep you up at night worrying about them
