[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, your 17 year old is likely going to college in August. Can they watch it then?  As PPs have mentioned, when kids are getting ready to be "launched" and are applying for and choosing college, it seems so much better to spend your last few FT parenting months spending time with them and discussing things than banning a TV show that they will either stream behind your back now, or as soon as you drop them off at college.

So should they be allowed to smoke pot at home as well?  After all they'll be out of the house in a year and I won't be able to stop it then. [/quote]

Well, pot is illegal, for one. There is no law against watching Game of Thrones.

Ok. Then how about letting your 17 year old have their boyfriend spend the night?  It's not illegal and they will be out of the house soon enough anyways where you won't be able to prevent it. [/quote]

Not pp but I would if he was a "long" time boyfriend. My niece began dating this boy in HS who was 17 at the time. They had sex about a year later for the first time and are still dating - she is almost 17 now and he is 19. He has slept in her house and has come to my house as well with the whole family. Just this weekend they were over and I put them together in the same room without anyone else. Her mother was here as well, and so her grandmother and grandfather. [/quote]
