How young people might behave, even when they know the consequences of their actions.

Byron knew he'd be in trouble after having his hair straightened and colored, what was called a conk. His parents had already voiced their disapproval, but Byron went ahead and did it behind their backs. Unfortunately for him..... he still has to suffer the consequences..... and Momma is going to let her husband deal with it. She even told Byron that he looked like Bozo.

Note, rebellion is a part of youth, but not everyone thinks about the repurcussions..... or thinks what might happen is definitely going to happen.
