[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people think that drinking and screwing around in their teens was a highlight of their lives, so they don’t care if their kids are doing it. [/quote] It’s moreso that kids go to college at 17/18, they’re suddenly out from under their mom’s thumb & go wild.[/quote] The kids who are wild in high school are wild in college also [/quote] +1 and the kids who aren’t wild in high school don’t become wild in college. At least that was my experience. [/quote] That may be your anecdotal experience. But my experience in college was that the kids whose parents thought they had zero interest or who had overbearing parents went hog wild the first chance they got. However, we never allowed underaged drinking in our house but had lots of discussions with our kids as they navigated their teen years and knew where they were and who they were with. [/quote]
