[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an honest question that I am sure will get flamed for --- If I allow my Sophomore DD to have a larger group of kids over, say 40, and I hide all alcohol in my home, and walk through party every 20-30 minutes to make sure I do not see anything obvious -- including alcohol, do you think it is right to hold me responsible for kids drinking at the party?  Where should 15-16 year-olds go on the weekend? I do not want my kids drinking, doing drugs or having sex.  I would never buy alcohol for minors.  But I do not think it should the adults fault including another parent that allows kids over their house.  I don't want the gathering to be in some woods in Gaithersburg or parking lots in Bethesda.  And I don't think the answer is no more get togethers.  But I guess the law says I would be responsible. [/quote]

You lost me at :"If I allows my sophomore to have a large group of kids over, say 40"

You are saying you can't be responsible for what all 40 kids are doing?  How about you don't invite 40 kids over your house????  I mean really

And what are kids supposed to do you say?  Hang out at the mall, movies, go bowling, laser tag, have sleepovers, have small groups over to watch movies/play card games.  Go to sporting events, concerts, or other holiday events like Field of Screams.  Please stop the excuse that kids have nothing to do.  Drinking in a house doing nothing is lame.  Losers do that.

+1 at our high school it is the popular group that is doing this. The parents don't want their kids to be out of the group which is why this will continue. it is not cool to go bowling, do laser tag etc.[/quote]
