Many parents would be upset if their kids used drugs but many are accepting if their kid has been drinking. They consider drinking a beer as a right of passage in high school. I know of students using ecstasy all night and then they drink a beer when they get home and mom or dad smells the beer and thinks it's fine. |
Parents don't think the preppy kids do drugs. They look at the gothic- dressed kids. |
This is a democracy not an anarchy. We have a system in the country to change rules. When you are on the Supreme Court, you can make that decision. |
What really are the drug issues today are very different from 10 years ago. Many of the parents who experimented with drugs in high school and college think they know, but they don't because it changes rapidly. |
