[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sports helps for sure.  I always hear parents sneer at those of us who have our kiddos enrolled in sports but those kids for the most part are typically late to the party (hehe) since they have so many sporting commitments.[/quote]

The athletes are the biggest partiers out of all the students, particularly sports like football, lacrosse, baseball, cheerleading and swimming.

The distance runners seem to be the exception.

But, honestly, having a high school athlete in those 5 sports listed above significantly increases the likelihood of having a kid who parties, drinks and experiments with drugs.[/quote]

+1,000 the athletes come from upper middle class wealth. Not surprising. They all stick together. [/quote]

Have to disagree. My two kids are athletes. Neither parties like that due to practice/game schedule. I've noted female friends who have limited activities are the ones who have to go to every party and max out on the bad behavior. Each of my kids goes out to varying degrees but work'/school/sports comes first. [/quote]
