[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD’s party is in 2 weeks. We always chaperone, but this incident shows that a teen can hand a vape pen to another child at the bathroom door.

I can’t see anyone trying to vett our guest list, but there was a group text yesterday about who was going to the movies. Several moms wanted to make sure the big group didn’t include the suspended girl. It didn’t. [b]However, she is not grounded according to DD.[/b] [/quote]

Is that really the only punishment you think is valid for this offense?  Maybe they are doing something else?[/quote]

Their something else is a research paper about vaping.

I see that they are struggling with the realities of parenting a young teen. There’s a disconnect. One parent is rather daydreamy in an absent minded professor way. The other is very involved on a narrow aspect of child development and otherwise just focused on work and adult socializing. The girl is treated as a fourth adult in the household —there’s another relative in the home, but also never there.

A lot of additional independently verified info emerged today and the situation is more serious than just experimenting. Her attendance at a party in my home is no longer in question. [/quote]
