[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t ever check my 15 year old’s phone.  I stopped before high school.  He’s pretty open about things and I know a lot of friends are drinking, doing drugs and even driving without a license. I know some of their parents know but I know my kid has also tried drugs and alcohol.  We are trying to keep the lines of communication open and think that’s more effective than checking phones.  I can’t keep up with what apps they use to communicate.  They aren’t texting.

As for the other stuff, we stopped allowing sleepovers many years ago.  We sleep with our car keys in our bedroom.  I don’t think he’s leaving in the night since I’m the lighter sleeper in the house.  [/quote]

Your kid is only 15 and has already tried alcohol and drugs and you don’t look at his phone ever? You don’t think he is sneaking out but you aren’t even sure? What about girls, sex, bullying, harassment, or getting in cars with drinkers, etc…  You think a 15yr old boy tells the truth to his parents. He told you every time he tried things or made mistakes. His friends are the bad ones but he isn’t?  Come on!!!
