[quote=Anonymous]A lot of kids drink in HS and even middle school and a lot do not.  Personally, I don’t think taking away the phone and computer is the answer.   You can do that if you want but need to do more because it won’t do anything to help.

I drank with friends in middle school and HS and so did DH. A lot. So for our kids, we got rid of all alcohol in the house during those years. We know just how sneaky we were at the various houses.  We slept with our car keys in our bedroom for years too.  And we said no to sleepovers.

Sure, they can drink during other times but we were strict on who they hung out with.  So I’m with you on the grounding.  She doesn’t hang out outside of school with these kids again for a very long time.  You decide if you allow it again and you know if this is was a one time thing or if they are going down the wrong path.  That is the most important thing to determine through continuous talking and open conversations.  They might be good kids who just made a mistake.
