Decisions You've Made That Have Caused Tremendous Pain

[otnemem]

When I was a baby, my dad got lung cancer from smoking. I was the fourth of four kids, and my mom tells me to this day how hard it was constantly thinking, "I have four kids, and now my husband is going to die." They successfully operated on my dad, removing a lobe of his lung. Twenty-five years later, he's a healthy 60-year-old.

From ages 15 through 22, I smoked a pack of cigarettes a day, despite knowing my dad's history and the tremendous pain my actions caused my parents.

So what's the worst decision or series of decisions you've ever made, that effected people around you so deeply that you're still uncomfortable discussing them?

LOL.

The worst decision I've ever made was throwing a huge kegger back when I was 16 (the party was busted by the cops). It might not sound that bad, but the decision had a lot of really bad consequences.

For one, it scared the [censored] out of my little brother and caused him to cry. More importantly, my parents have never been more disappointed in me. It took years for them to trust me 100% again. Finally, I effectively opened up my house to some really scetchy kids from my town. There were people doing serious drugs in my living room, and one scumbag even came back a few months later, broke into my house, and stole my family's PS2 (he was caught and arrested).
