Totally agree!  We have one about to graduate from college, one in college, one leaving this summer for college, and two in high school.  No way would I allow my senior to go to "beach week".  Of course they are going to party in college.  But that's a more controlled environment.  And they aren't going to college for the sole purpose of getting drunk and acting like idiots.  Sometimes parents need to step in and prevent kids from doing things that might have lasting consequences.  An 18 year old does not have the judgment nor the life experience to always make good decisions at the moment of choice.  I would argue that even a 19 or 20 year old is more equipped than an 18 year old high school senior.

It's not about controlling your kids.  We all know that if kids want to get drunk, do drugs, or have sex, they'll find a way.  However, encouraging your child to do so is irresponsible.  [/quote]

College is a more controlled environment? Really? [/quote]

Agreed pp.  How is college more controlled?  You think because there is an RA?  Mine smoked weed with ppl on our floor in her room.  Who is watching them helicopter mom?[/quote]
