Aw, I love Sandy getting all upset that Seth endangered Ryan! Very sweet.

:)

Poor Ryan. So unsure. Even getting into trouble by forgiving their son.

And that "Yes, Sir"? :) Great.

Thank you.

So many thanks!

I always wanted the Cohens to call Seth on all the times he put Ryan in danger, but it never happened. Thus, my 'AU' take on their parenting here.

We never really heard Ryan with the 'sir' or 'ma'am' to the Cohens, but I'm convinced that in the early days he would have responded that way when he was under fire from either of them. (Later, too, under the right circumstances.)

Thank you for the feedback!

and I’m really unhappy that you stayed there after you saw what was going on - but to then purposely drag Ryan into that mess, too? I’ve gotta’ ask - do you want him to go back to Juvie? Is that what you want?” loved this

How I wanted the Cohens to call Seth on all his antics that put Ryan's future in jeopardy!

PDP, how much I missed you in canon for this.
Thank you for giving me what canon never delivered.
The parental units actually giving Seth a clue about the possible consequences of his actions and how much trouble he ould have gotten Ryan into.
It wasn't the only time that Seth simply expected Ryan to fix things and do something Seth thought might be fun although everyone could guess, how much it could easily jeopardize Ryan's probation or stay with the Cohens.
I know Seth didn't do it on purpose. He is simply too naive, so it was about time, someone opened his eyes to it.
And of course it's not his fault alone. But I guess, we get to Ryan in the next part...

Thank you, Kat! It's so nice to see that you're reading!

Early Seth was naive, wasn't he? Later on, though, when he should have known better, he still put Ryan in danger far too many times. I wish the Cohens would have called him on some of his antics -- it would have made an interesting scene. Sigh. Oh well, since TPTB didn't do it, it's up to us, right?

There are so many situations where I wanted to strangle Seth (and not just him, but Marissa and Summer and several others as well) for the way they acted.
We just need to look a few weeks later -
The trip to TJ? Helloooo, Ryan is on probation!!! Leaving the country without anyone knowing - yeah, I'm sure his PO loved that.
Getting him out of his entrance exam for Harbor (plus distrurbing his studying for it before) just because Marissa can't handle her mom alone - what were they thinking? It's his future and his chances to get into a good college, that they put at risk here.
And I think we could go on like that forever.

[chaseii]

Exactly! And you are right -- the list goes on and on and on...
