[QUOTE="Anaheimfan, post: 227989, member: 6263"] Jennifer, I agree that it is only the parent's fault to an extent. I'm not placing all the blame on one party or the other. And the situation you put forth is yet another good example. Although they are not handing the bottles to their kids and their friends, if they aren't locking the cabinets, they may just as well pour the stuff down their throats. Same for the parents who leave their narcotics lying around (not that they should have illicit substances anyway, but if you are gonna have them around, keep them out of your children's reach) they may as well light the joint or heat the spoon for'em. Both parties are guilty in my eyes. But the parent is the older one, and should be responsible. If they really loved their kids, they would want to keep them on this earth as long as humanly possible. If they really cared, they wouldn't leave their alcohol and drugs lying around or provide the opportunity for their kids to get drunk or stoned. If they really cared they wouldn't let their kid put every other kid in the area at risk....You know? [/QUOTE]
