What are parents whose kids drink in high school doing or thinking?

“If abstinence is not acceptable, I am not sure there is a better way.”

Of course there is a better way. I drink because I enjoy the taste, its social, I can handle it…I drink in moderation, I like the taste of wine, something that has been around forever.

What I am seeing here is a kind of Reefer Madness script in some posts…not effective and not realiistic

People have been drinking and altering their conciousness throughout time, little kids spin in circles until they get dizzy, and there is no reason for responsible adults to think it has to be all or nothing for themselves

I don’t like teens getting blotto- it makes for dangerous situations, but this we drank like fish when we were younger, and sure we are okay now, but heaven forbid you should be like us, is treating these young adults like morans. They see right through it.
