[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK how is it that all these parents on here are so sure their kids aren't partying? Judging from my friends' parents and my own parents' ideas of how we spent our time, I've concluded that parents don't know the half of what goes on.  A friend of mind found out her DC was partying and experimenting way more than she thought.  Not that that's a bad thing.  I just think it's strange that so many on here are so certain they know.

It’s not so much partying I’m worried about — it’s partying effecting class attendance and studying (ergo grades). idk what my kid does in their dorm complex, but I can see if he leaves for class in the morning and if he’s ever in campus libraries. [/quote]

I just can’t imagine tracking my college students (I have 2 - freshmen and junior).  The apron strings need to be cut. If their grades suck, then address it and pull the $ if warranted. Otherwise quit the micromanaging. I am so worried how these kids will ever make it in the real world with this overwhelming involvement.

If the grades suck you have proof of why. Kids lie, you know. "But mom, I don't know what happened, I don't party, I go to every lecture, I'm in the library all weekend." :roll: Well, actually...[/quote]

H E L I C O P T E R of actual adults over 18yrs old???  Lady, you need help.  [/quote]
