[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When does the partying start? --9th grader has zero interest in that scene but wondering if that will change. Kids are very scheduled these days compared to the 90s. [/quote] PP and hate to tell you this but 6th grade can begin but early partying hits stride in 7th/8th. Something to consider as some FCPS have 6/7/8 in middle school. [/quote] Also - to your point of being very scheduled-this can work towards your advantage. My DC got really into health and personal fitness and wanted to keep their positions on their HS sports teams. Lots of time spent on conditioning, learning about nutrition, even meal planning and prep. No place for drugs and alcohol. I’d say 3/4 are social drinkers and one is an avowed teetotaler due to a chronic health condition. Very fortunate that one DC made friends with a group of classmates in ES and that solid group of friends added a few more nice kids - and they are still friends and some roommates all through college. I see the opposite in a close family member whose DC has no activities and entirely too much free time and money. [/quote]
