[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because around here they are all vaping and smoking pot and drinking. Eating pot gummy bears on their private school school buses on the way to school in the morning. And the girls are half naked when they go to dances. And the boys are all sharing the naked pics their "girlfriends" send them. They lie all the time. They don't work anymore over the summers - they are too busy racking up volunteer opps and playing sports for college scholarships they rarely actually end up getting.

It's a shitshow. I'm not even quite there yet, but I'm watching the private and parochial and public school kids of friends.

Five years ago, all these kids were sweet, polite, and adorable.

I am just bracing myself.

You should move!  I moved from a metro area to a small town with a large university.  This stuff isn't going on here.  My kid was SHOCKED at how nice the kids are at school.  You don't have to stay there!  There are places where kids are still nice and aren't doing all this stuff.  [/quote]

they are doing that stuff there, too (plus oxi).  your kid probably found better-quality friends.[/quote]

My ds was talking about what was happening in classes wrt bullying.  The kids are nicer here.  [/quote]
