I failed the first quarter of a class in middle school, so I created a fake report card. I did this every quarter that year. I didn't remember that they send home the end-of-year cards, and my mom got it before I could switch it with my fake. She was PISSED—at the school for their blunder. The teacher also retired that year and had already gotten rid of his records, so they had to believe my mother’s “proof” (the fake ones I made throughout the year) and “fix” the “mistake.” I’ve never confessed.
