[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids sneaking around with alcohol is one thing. Parents should be clear they don’t allow drinking and they don’t allow kids drinking at their house. If it were to happen and the kids were caught, the kids would get in trouble.

Knowingly hosting kids who are partying and/or buying alcohol for them is a whole different thing and a very bad idea.

Also, letting your kids get wasted in HS is not going to prevent this in college. Come on. [/quote]

Agree with 1st 2 points, but on last point, I don't think any of the parents saying that if their kids are going to experiment, they want it to be while they still live with them so they're more likely to notice and intervene - those are not the same parents saying they'd host or "It's ok for my kids to get wasted, I'm letting them".  Pretty sure if you asked which parents would knowingly let their kids go out when they knew they'd get wasted would still say yes, but who knows maybe some would let it happen. I just know no one in this long convo has said they are "letting their kids get wasted" except for the parents who host and allow/buy alcohol knowingly (or don't stop others from bringing it in).[/quote]
