[quote=Anonymous]Sadly not one poster here, presumably parents all of us, has mentioned the most urgent message that should be going around about under-age drinking.  Not that it doesn't happen or can be aligned with any school, but the fact of the current drug and alcohol awareness education that overwhelmingly supports discouraging underage drug/alchol use as a scientific measure -- the facts we now know about the adolescent minds and systems truly will be heartier and less likely to become addicts later in lfe if they are put off now.  Many of us parents who whooped it up in middle and/or high school might have much better habits today had there been such a wealth of support and information as most schools have today in their instruction.  Just because our parents thought it was cute to offer beers or a safe haven for "youthful exuberance" in a past generation doesn't mean we shouldn't try and steer our kids to a healthier adult life than we had. Drinking and drugs at a young age is not a moral issue -- it's an issue to deal with maturely so they may enjoy their lives without black-outs, date rape, and addiction before 21 years of age! So, set the bar high (pardon the pun) -- when we lower it they will jump in the game too young.[/quote]
