Help My Mom Misunderstood Me and Now I’m in Trouble?

Question by Baby: Help my mom misunderstood me and now i’m in trouble?
I told my friend on the phone that we should meet at the Math lab after school tomorrow and my mom thought I said Meth Lab. What do I do???????????

Best answer:

Answer by Joe F
Tell her you said “MATH lab NOT meth lab”.
That was funny though.

Answer by Hillier
Tell her the truth and ask your friend to help? It’s the only thing you can do. If she over heard you, then ask your friend to tell her you meant “math”, not “meth”. This can happen when one suddenly drops by on a conversation, even with families.
