Teen drinking...

[Larry Gude]

...I asked the 17 year old the other evening how much drinking she does with her pals. The 19 year old blurted out "Ha! Hardly any! She is the best beer pong player, ever!" Instant silence.

This was followed by an icy stare from one side of the room. A 'who, me?' look from the other side, a bewildered good/bad look from me and then an explosion of laughter from all three of us which hurt like hell which is another story.

And I thought there was nothing good about the college freshman bombing out and being home this fall.

As a parent you teach them right from wrong, but that doesn’t mean that they are always going to listen.
