[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am truly interested in what kind of high school experience the call the police posters had. We drank all the time, went to top DC schools, went to great colleges, and were generally fine. We were drinking beer and, back then, smoking cigarettes. We weren't doing anything too crazy.

Did these posters not go to parties, and assume parties involved cocaine and sex trafficking or something? This level of outrage is such an extreme take on normal teen behavior. You have to teach your kid how to exist in the world. It's not your job to shut down teenage activity as a general matter. [/quote]

The OP is talking about parents supplying alcohol to teenagers.  I don't know why you think that's all right, because it's not.  You were lucky that nothing bad came of your frequent drinking as a teen; many aren't so fortunate.

Next time, call the cops, OP.  [/quote]

No, she is talking about a party where there are no adults and alcohol is present.

I am not promoting alcohol use, but the [b]hysterical reaction on this site leads me to believe many posters just have zero experience with teen drinking[/b]. The advice is often way over the top. [/quote]

No, we just think we need to stop normalizing passed out teens that don't know where they are or are passed out. [/quote]

That is not the job of cops.[/quote]

Sure it is.  They'd much rather be called for prevention rather than after a catastrophe.

You don’t need guns or police over to call a parent. Do your job and stop expecting cops to do it for you.[/quote]
