[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 478602, member: 1514"] Well I dont know that you definitely have to assume that there are pot parties going on where everyone is passing the bong and singing Kumbaya all the time. Even if the parents or father smokes, doesnt mean he does it with the kids or that they allow under age consumption of alcohol. I am fairly liberal but you wouldnt catch me allowing anyone anyone underage drinking at my house and if anyone had been drinking when they were over 21, they would be staying the night if they had more than 2 or 3 drinks unless they had a sober driver. Now that no one lives here except Billy that isnt even an issue. I just think they are clueless about how to handle this. Jamies first girlfriend had some very strange parents. Actually she had about 3 sets of parents that we had to deal with. She had an alcoholic mother that she lived with periodically, a grandmother that she lived with periodically, and a father who lived out of town with a floozy girlfriend. The father was a druggie who depending on the month could or could not be using. It was a nightmare. The grandmother was also an alcoholic and she had a boyfriend who was just about useless. Grandma was an ass-grabber who would end up drunk and call my SO when she would black out and lose her way and try to get him to come get her. It was awful. Oh there was also a great grandmother in that was the sanest of the bunch but she was too old to do anything. We did end up letting her live with us for a while when she turned up on our doorsteps with bruises on her face and neck saying her mother threw her out after beating her up. That ended up in disaster though when we caught her cheating on my son while he was in boot camp. I havent had good luck with any of my sons in laws...lol. Except I did like Jamie's current wife's mom but she died in the fall of 08. But she was an alcoholic too and she had a thing for my SO too. She would get drunk at night and call him up and talk dirty to him...lol. [/QUOTE]
