RRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAVVES!!!
I dunno. I think I would be easier on my kids. Of course I wouldnt want them to become druggies or sumthin close, but I don't want to be as hard on them as my parents were. That just gets them to start lyin about shit and so on.... so yea. |

Trust me. As someone who has been to a boarding school and seen how religious schools work and whatnot, all you're doing is breeding these kids to be as noncomplacent as possible and just start doing drugs because it's something their parents told them not to. Sending your kid anywhere they don't want to go is a surefire way to alienate them from you and make them more likely to not give a flying rat's ass if you tell them not to do drugs, and if anything pushes them towards drugs in the end. Fact of the matter is all you can do is love your child and help them out as much as you can without going against what they want to do with themselves. Besides, I can't believe what hypocrites all the people on this forum are being. I mean, seriously, how many of you can outright say you never touched alcohol or drugs before you left home? So you're supposed to coerce your child to not do what you did as a kid? Sounds fucking hypocritical to me. But sending your kid to private school has got to be the worst suggestion for handling the drug problem that I have ever seen. |

if ur kids are smart they know not to mess with anyways. that is where education comes in handy...local schools are bad infuence for mixing drugs and yeah im all tough guy/tough girl crap. If ur kids are mature enough at a young age to realize that drugs and large amounts of alcohol consumption are bad, then the parents have done the best job possible job to account for this in some way or another.....in the end, if u have problems with drugs and alcohols and ur parents are worried about u, obviously u have a mental block.

I'm a raver and will always consider myself a raver. I'm not much of a clubber though. The only clubs I go to are in lieu of raves and play techno and house anyways.
Raving is a lot more of a loaded experience, however it's also a lot less frequent to find a really REALLY good one. Clubbing is consistent but it's a club. |

Plaza parties not raves... that's debatable, but thinking it over I guess you're right. Antenna_Boy: I wasen't asking what atmosphere is more fun, I was asking which one you would classify as safer and would more likely allow your kids to go to. |

It also causes babies which is very emotionally and financially taxing, especially at a young age. Trust me, sex is every bit as dangerous as drugs are. So, what's the answer if you can't tell them what to do and what not to do? It's called HARM REDUCTION. Teach them ways to be safe. Seriously. Get a banana and teach them how to put on a condom if they don't already know (and if you don't know, learn). Tell them about other forms of birth control and ways to prevent STDs. Tell them what you'd rather they did but never EVER tell them what to do. It simply puts them in a position where the desire to do it becomes that much more. Preaching NEVER works. The only people that really get moved by opinions are people that already believe what's being said. What will help are facts and whatnot. Tell them about STDs, and don't just limit yourself to Syph, the clap and AIDs because they get the most airtime on CNN. There are plenty of resources available at clinics all over the place and plenty of places you can find this stuff out. You can give them your opinion but make sure they understand that that's all it is: an opinion. Otherwise it sounds accusatory, and it's especially bad if they haven't done anything yet, because they're getting in trouble for something they never did. |
