[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have two mega social middle school kids.  No way I would allow them to sleep over at a house were I haven't even met the parents.  No way.   My kids miss a lot of sleepovers, they are fine.[/quote]
Just so you are ready when they are in HS. Kids will drink, the only thing you can do about it, either never let them go anywhere, at all. Never have any other kids at home, they will sneak drinks and you might catch them or you might not. Sometimes, if you know they are not crazy into drinking, it is better off to have honest communication with your kids and pick them up, and have them tell you to get them an uber. If you make a nasty deal, they will just sneak more. I couldn't believe it all, I grew up in Europe, partying without drinking, none did in my group, goody two shoes...Sometimes it is better if you know parents and kids to let them sleep over at friend's house. Am I happy about it? No, but we all know what happened to that poor kid from Whitman. Better accept it and ask your kid about it without making a huge scene so that if they are in a situation that they really need you they will call you. Talk about peer pressure, having fun without drinking, etc.. Neither of these is ideal, but one could save a kid's life, the other may not. Sad, but true![/quote]
