Mischief

Mischief refers to behavior that intentionally causes trouble, annoyance, or minor damage, often for amusement or to provoke a reaction. It typically involves playful or reckless acts that are not meant to seriously harm but can still disrupt or inconvenience others. Mischief can range from harmless pranks to more disruptive actions, and it often reflects a sense of creativity, curiosity, or defiance. While usually considered minor, repeated or intentional mischief may require addressing to prevent escalation or harm.
