[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]18 year olds are legal adults.  I'm not sure why the OP 
is helicoptering.  For 1000's of years 18 year olds have been
living on their own, making their own way  and starting families.

18 year olds are responsible for their own alcohol consumption and drug consumption.  The reality is in many states consumption
of alcohol is not legal until 21.

Don't pay for college if you are concerned about your adult
child becoming an addict. Let you adult child work a job
to pay their way through community college if it is 
concern.  Many kids get through college this way and
are very successful in life.

At 18 I was buying my own cars, finding my own places to
live, and selecting my college courses.

I'm not sure why parents want to baby their adult children
nowadays.[/quote]

Did you also have schizophrenia and you found your own doctor and Treatment plan?

Nobody is asking for parents to be called if a kid wears white after Labor Day but when a mental health breakdown is happening somebody needs to know.

May stop a shooting or 2 or 50.[/quote]

Do you seriously think that the parents of someone like Cho thought that their kid was just fine?  I don't.  Anyone who ran into Cho knew that he was seriously disturbed.  He should never have been away at school.
