[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another parent here - private school - and yes there is a large group of parents that almost encouraged drinking from the start of HS.  The rationale was that the kids can UBER, and better drink at their house than in a field somewhere etc.  Kids drink vodka drinks and beer.    And yes, parents of this crowd def. think of their kids as the cool ones.  Many of the parents are big time lawyers too.  At graduation kids and parents all drink together at these parties - and even knowing all of this I was still shocked at the number of grad parties where the parents had kegs and didn't give a crap if other parents not in the crowd knew.  Nobody ratted them out and some of the parties were huge.  I don't mind my kids having drinks in moderation when they are in later HS, but no way would I supply to others to be cool.[/quote]

Yep. 16yo DD was invited to a classmate's house and then they UBERed to the house of a very famous DC type where kids were drinking. DC stayed a bit but doesn't drink and felt uncomfortable when kids started pairing up so she UBERed home. The kids there have parents most people have heard of, and the parents seem to be fine with their HS kids getting drunk every weekend, as long as they do it in their houses.  [/quote]
