[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 641780, member: 1550"] Terry, I did not think your son was involved in drugs at all. Well, there's always a first time...haha. At any rate, I know how you and your hubby are and if you say no car he will have NO CAR and that is VERY motivating for young would-be pot users to stop it. You stick to things more than anyone else on the site and that's why basically he is doing well. I would never give any kid or adult my car to use (or his car to use if it was in my name) if he indulged in any sort of substance abuse. I totally agree with you. To me this is a no-brainer. Pot slows your reflexes...duh. We took any access to a car from our daughter when we found out about the drugs. That was the end of her driving anything that belonged to us. And she had to get rides from other people or talk them into using their cars. Stupidly, a few did and she did crack up a couple cars, but they weren't ours. She was lucky she wasn't badly hurt. One lady sued her for a ton and she was paying this lady way after she quit using drugs. Not worth the risk. You are a very smart parent. The little darlings need to know that if they smoke the dope, they will get very healthy leg muscles from walking ;) [/QUOTE]
