While I might be mildly impressed, I would also hope to teach my kids respect for other people's property.

As a parent, I hope my kids never learn total obedience. My parents operated on the total obedience principle, but thankfully it didn't stick past the age of twelve.

It's a shame these skills are no longer passed down to the younger generations...

While my own "skills" in high school only extended to keeping myself out of trouble, I did fake hall passes and alter attendance records. Funny thing was that I usually told the teacher what I was up to and they never seemed to care. Or maybe they just didn't believe me...
