Im gonna start calling the police everytime i find out parents are letting kids drink at there house. Why do police let these parents get-away with this? I need help in staoping this. Any one want to join me in busting parents for letting kids have partys and drinking.

we're (us teens) going to do it (drink) one way or another, these parents are just thinking its better to have them at home and safe than to have them somewhere that they dont know about and where they could be out drinking AND DRIVING...

yes, but dont you get the fact that if a teen gets drunk and drives and kills someone , its gonna be the parents fault. and believe me they will go to jail. MY Question is , WHY do teens think they have to get drunk? is it cool or something.? How many girls from milan are pregant or have been pregant? I know alot of parents letting teens drink at there house, and its just a matter of time before they get busted.

its just something to do in this boring town. its not like we feel like we "have" to do it, its just fun and gives us something to do and usually its only a small group of friends that hang out n drink if the parent allows and they STAY there. most of us dont even have big parties anymore because theres too much risk that we arent willing to take. yeah i do know that it would be the parents fault but thats their decision to put their own lifes on the line everytime they let underage drinking go on in their home. i just dont think its your place to tell the parents, that actually are adults and can make decisions for themselves, what they should and shouldnt be doing with their children. if you think about it, theyre actually trying to be safe about the situation. the kids are going to drink PERIOD. its better to have them in your own home than somewhere else and having them lie to you about it.

Ok...there are like 2 people that are pregant. Well there were 3 but she had her baby. I mean my parents let me drink, but that's only when it's just us. Or even if we have family over. But the only thing that I drink are winecoolers, and it's just usually one or two. But even at a party i won't drink because I know that i'll have to drive home. And my dad said if i ever drink don't drive and just call him up and he'll come and get me.

I dont understand why parents lets kids drink in there home . Dont they realize they could go to jail if one kids leaves a party and gets into a wreck and kills someone. I think some mothers should start calling the police every time they here of a party

Parents who let there children drink is ridiculous. It's like telling them it's ok to do whatever you want. IF the parents had the children in church then the kids would have something to do, like go to study group or take youth group trips, and other things. The drinking is only going to lead to something more drastic and all the drinking will do is make you fat. So use your head for something other than a hat rack and think before you act.

if they dont do it at home theyll for sure drink outside the first chance they get even if they dont really want to theyl be curious enough to drink one.
and the churches around here arent that umm cant think of the word right now but im gonna use interesting? and im a christian havent went to church in months tho.
If parents are gonna let kids drink do it but id suggest taking their car keys before they start. and make sure their staying the night and if anyone has to go home you drive stay sober till you dropped them all off then when you get home do what your gonna do drink or sleep.
thats what my parents did with me and my friends when we were young and far as i know they all drink responsibly still as adults i dont have kids but if i did i wouldnt encourage him/her to drink but if they were curious id let them try it with supervision but not when their to young like 14-down.
just my opinion not really trying to start an argument i probably wont even gt back on this website aytime soon.

I here alot of how it might be the parents fault and that the kids could hurt someone else. But lets get alittle more in Depth, What about The Kid that is doing the Drinking? Do you think about how it hurts yourself? Could you Live with yourself after hurting someone else because you were bored? Can you stop drinking when you want to or are you already addicted and to affraid for your rep, to ask for help. How about if even one of the Parents goes to jail because of you. Would you still be Bored? Of Course you would have 1 more place to go if your parent is in Prison. Or would be able to face them. I know what I am talking about, Peer Presure is hard even in a small town. Your Parents would be more Proud of you if speak out and tell people "I Don't want to drink". There would be more Trust all around, You feel better about yourself. Don't risk your Health, Don't risk your life and for God's sake please don't risk someone else's Life. Because that just kills you both. Stay Sober to help others get sober!
