[quote=Anonymous]My oldest is 14, so I know I will be entering these waters in the next few years. I agree with how OP handled it, and understand her uneasiness about it. I would want my son to call me, and not drive drunk or get in a car with someone that is drunk. At the same time, I would not want to be the “cool” mom that is ok with kids getting trashed. So it is a very delicate balance. In this situation, I would have wanted to contact the other parents and drop them off at their respective houses. However, if I did that, the next time my son would be in that situation… would he call me, or would he drive drunk or get in the car with someone driving that is drunk? Have to think long term in this situation. Hence why I would just drop them off at the sleepover house. The only other thing I would have done is to reach the parents at the drop off house, and confirm that there would be no more drinking that evening. [/quote]
