20. My own Dad dragged me to a neighbor's house by the short hairs on the back of my head.

I did something I'm completely ashamed of and not going to go into here. When it was found out, all three of us were in our neighbor's living room with our parents. My dad actually offered the neighbor the chance to take a belt to my backside which was, thankfully, declined.

Upon returning home which was only about four doors away I got a whoopin' to end all whoppin's and I might add that I deserved more. The neighbor in question had every right to call the law. The next day I got the shortest butch haircut I'd ever had, was grounded to the yard for the WHOLE summer with a list of chores as long as your arm. The list included chores for the neighbor but he said he'd rather not have me on his property at all.

The notion of my dad going down the street to apologize for me is laughable. Maybe that's why I can't wrap my head around this guy going to her house without his young monster.
