My dad was a very careless and mischievous kid. He grew up in a time when pulling pranks on people wasn’t as big of a deal as it is now. One time he accidentally hung his dad’s colt from a swing tied to the barn rafters. Even though this was an accident, it shows Dad was careless because he forgot to remove the swing.Another time he dismantled a neighbor’s truck and reassembled it in a field with a fence running through the middle of it. Most of the time when people pull pranks like this they are focused on having fun and causing trouble for others, thus, mischievous. When he was in high school, he and his buddies took the bed from a teacher’s house and put it on top of the roof so that when the teacher returned from his honeymoon, he wouldn’t have a bed. This proves the mischievous nature of my dad because he wasn’t trying to hurt anyone, just have fun. My father is an amazing person and is extremely kind and considerate of others, but that grew as he grew up.
