[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) Why did you just happen to drop by during the party? 
2) What did you say to the parents hosting the party?[/quote]

1) I stopped-by because they said: "stop-by, it would be nice to see you!". I really thought keeping an eye on things meant they would confiscate any contraband and defuse any undesirable situations. I think for them it meant we will be keeping an eye out for police so no one gets in trouble.

2)I said nothing. This was not my home. I can't control what decisions adults make when it comes to how they want to parent in their own house. nor was i interested in creating a situation with someone we will have to deal with for at least 3 maybe 7 years.[/quote]

But you already have a situation with them that they and you created together. You are now part of the problem because you know they allow other people's kids to use alcohol and drugs in their home. And trust me, other parents will hear "Well, Larla's mom lets her go and she even stopped by." So your rep as a parent will be used to expose more kids to risk.[/quote]

I contacted the parents of the students that i know a little more closely and let them know what I observed and how i would be proceeding in the future. I can't change the host families thoughts, they've come to their decision from their own life experiences and are content with their policy. [/quote]
