Teen Love Tough

My children know that if I even suspect them of doing any type of drugs a drug dog will be in my house going through it. I do not accept drug use and I never will. I have a hard time taking regular OTC meds. I do not allow Smoking in my house either. I talk with my kids all the time about the dangers of drugs and alcohol that their friends may want them to try. SO far I have only one child fall to the temptations but that is a while other story in itself. But We have used her as an example to the other four. Hopefully they will not have to go through any of that.

What other option did the parents have. If they don't turn the kid in they may become liable for the drugs in their home if there is ever a raid.

I hope they kicked the bum out. He is abusing the kindness of his Parents by using illegal drugs under their roof.

If he is old enough to take so called adult drugs, he is old enough to get a job, pay for them himself, and be a strung out druggy under his own roof.
