[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your kids are going away in a few months and you can’t even trust them not to drink at family events.  Parenting fail!  You have officially oversheltered to the point that your children have failed to learn.[/quote]
Do you have teenagers? You did hear about the poor teen last year that drank and died at night in cold wooded area just between houses? No, we don't trust them not to drink, and even if we trust our own not to drink, we certainly don't trust their friends not to drink. You know why? Because we are not stupid and naive, teens are like imbeciles when it comes to drinking, you can talk and they will say, sure and go and be stupid. I never drank as a teen, nor do I now, but I sure as hell am not welcoming dozens and dozens of teens into my house and having an open bar, and paying a bartender?! I am not that rich, nor am I that stupid. We are not in the 80s or 90s anymore when nobody cared, I could end up in jail, I could end up sued by a clueless parent like you, who is stupid enough to trust her kids! I hope you are right to be this trusting, in my experience all the parents of teens I know had a very rude awakening sooner or later. If yours are adults and never drank, great for you and them, more likely you don't have teens or are deceived by them all the time. That is the only difference I see, parents that are aware that their kids are going to do stupid things and those that bury their heads in the sand. I'd rather not be an ostrich. If your kids are young and you are just talking out of your........maybe try to learn something so you don't get a call from ER where you kid is with alcohol poisoning, I know 4 kids from a good school, good families that survived and you would never think these kids were that stupid, all look like goody two shoes. So, wipe that smirk off your face, and count your blessings that your kids didn't get caught, if you have kids.[/quote]
