Your child is right where he should be this summer. |
| Curfew? My kids aren't allowed anywhere. WTF would they need a curfew for? |
| 11 pm |
Poor kids. |
The poor kids are the ones whose parents don't care enough about them to keep them home safe. The kids who have not imparted how important it is for them to stop the spread of this deadly virus. |
| 8 or 9 in clock no reason for a 14 year old to just be hanging out until 10 or midnight, that's almost a guarantee they are with people and doing things they shouldn't be at that age. |
8pm? What?? I know it’s covid but most bdays and events my kid was invited to at that age didn’t start until 6-7pm. |
Don’t attempt to try and shane me because you can’t. I’m unaffected by your opinion. Smother your kids some more. Therapy will be around the bend for your kids. |
Did I stutter? 8 or 9 pm. OP''s post said nothing about a birthday party, and I stand by my assertion that a party or anything else that would keep a 14 year old out past 10 pm is likely not any place appropriate for a 14 year old. |
I feel very bad for your kid. |
| My child isn't going out socializing. No curfew as there is no reason be out with covid and the only way to stop the spread is to stop socializing. |
You can’t read. If a party starts at 7 and you make your kid leave at 8, well, your kid is going to hate you and be humiliated. |
|
Any 14-year-old wanting to stay out until midnight is on a fast-track to really bad things. 10p.m. at the latest, and with GPS tracking via phone enabled.

I agree completely with the first PP. your child was in MS a year ago. Why should they be out late? What would they be doing, covid aside, at that hour that would in any way be productive in their lives. I see kids drinking, smoking pot, sexual activity as the TV in Hs that are potentially more likely in a kids future who roams around without an early curfew and frankly parental connection and involvement. These are the kids who have therapy in their future if they’ll be able to afford it.also Life360 is a must if your child is out roaming around at that age. For safety. |
| My 14 yo isn’t going out at night. There are no parties, etc. Social events are things like meeting up at a park or someone’s house to go for a socially distanced walk, or booking adjacent lanes at the pool to swim. All of those things take an hour or two and are daytime activities. |
