[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 119062, member: 1498"] MWM, do you not see the irony that you are advocating that this boy not be allowed to just hang, that he should be forced to get a job no matter what because of his drug abuse history yet your daughter, who got a job at 16, became a drug addict? Making a kid go to school or get a job doesn't provide immunity from drug and/or alcohol abuse. Sometimes it makes it more likely. Similarly, making someone come home by a certain hour doesn't prevent them from using drugs and/or alcohol. These things can be done at any time of day. The reality of the situation is far more complex than the if-he-doesn't-listen-kick-him-out solution would imply. [/QUOTE]
