[quote=Anonymous]OP - there are drugs and alcohol at ALL schools. Do not allow anyone to tell you differently. It is more important for you to have an honest and open relationship with your DC than it is to attempt to shield them from any exposure. It's simply not realistic and may lead to your child lying to you about what happens. Talk to your child about the dangers of drugs and alcohol, but also be sure to let them know that you will always be there for them. The worst thing a parent can do is make a child feel that they cannot talk to them about something in their life. Those types of environments can lead to some very sad and scary situations. However, also remember that not all kids will partake in the partying. It's a strong kid who forgoes the pressure, but it can happen. It's better to work on your kids' self-esteem as a form of protection rather than hiding everything from them.[/quote]
