Same here. But I started a couple of years earlier.
I'm just gonna do the exact same things my parents did to me.
I didn't start drinking till I was almost 20 and I didn't start having sex until around the same time.
If I can get in those ballpark figures with my children, I'd consider it a success.

you're telling the kids that it's not only ok to drink if you are underage, but you are also telling them that it's ok to break the law to have a good time, as long as you can justify it within your own moral code.
The reason it's against the law in the first place is because a legislature came to the conclusion that people under a certain age aren't responsible enough to partake in alcoholic beverages. Drinking ages have shifted around all the time. It's an arbitrary number to say the very least. The human brain doesn't fully develop until we're 23 or 24 anyway, so why not make the limit until we're 24?
I think the adult supervision of this thing defeats any objection to it... especially since attendees will have had to of had their parent's permission to go in the first place.
you are justifying breaking the law because in your mind, 19 (in this case) in your opinion is an arbitrary number.
You are telling these kids they should be able to drink if they want to.
....which is why they have to have it at a secret location....I think the adult supervision of this thing defeats any objection to it... especially since attendees will have had to of had their parent's permission to go in the first place.
I'm telling them it's ok to drink because their parents say it's ok to drink. The kids aren't drinking because I'm saying they should drink because they want to, they're drinking because their parents have told them that they want them to drink. The parents are ultimately the true gatekeeper to this. If you don't think this should be happening, go have a talk with the parents who are enabling it to happen in the first place.
they have to have it at a secret location because they don't want people showing up who aren't supposed to show up. I'm sure the parents know where it's at.
You're painting this too black and white. This kind of thing is a lot more complicated than you're allowing yourself to think.
You mean like Cops showing up when they are not invited?![]()
... if the town it small enough I wouldn't be surprised if the cops knew about it. I'm not familiar with Saskatchewan college to really know... although it sounds Canadian TBH.
Canadian beer sucks though.
Moosehead!!
I got faced with Rolling Rock when I started drinking beer.
i got drunk at Mouse's from 5 Rolling Rocks. hahahahahaha.
bleh... he still tries to say that I banged my friend from that night, even though she really was just a friend.
in fact i shouldnt have mentioned it because he might post the pictures now.
It's not my fault I get touchy feely when I drink![]()
You never know what kind of beer you'll find in Mouse's fridge.![]()
If you had a kid your thought process would be "well, my kid is going to drink anyway, so it may as well be done in what I assume to be a controlled atmosphere."
I disagree. If you are breaking the law to have a good time, then it's wrong. I'm not sure how much more black and white it gets.
the thing I'm curious about to is if they are forcing the kids to stay the night to sleep it off.
Piss beer![]()
Ok then. Your kid can be breaking the law behind your back and my kid can be breaking the law in a controlled environment. Good luck.
You can always just forbid them from leaving home.. but then you're ed when they move out when they get older and become a stripper as a way to cope with their repressed child hood.
if I've done a good enough job educating my kid, she won't be breaking the law at all...
and if she does, she will be punished accordingly.
your kid can break the law in front of your face and when he/she does it next time behind your back, you can't say squat because you have already allowed it before.
I'm guessing by your logic, there are very few strippers that were ever given alcohol at an early age by their parents........those lucky kids that had cool parents went on to become doctors and lawyers.....You can always just forbid them from leaving home.. but then you're ed when they move out when they get older and become a stripper as a way to cope with their repressed child hood.
come back in 10-20 years when you've had a teenager and let me know how it's gone for you.
at the "well MY kid....."
All you people saying that your daughter was raised right and blah blah blah will be grandparents alot sooner than you think.
You may be right....then again...you could be wrong. So far none of my nieces have gotten pregnant before the age of 21. That being said my oldest just turned 15 so......only time will tell.
You know what abortions and condoms are right?

Birth control, yes...abortion? No way.
