Parents Helping Kids Do Wrong July 13, 2011 Commentary


Don’t you think parents should be teaching what is right to their kids. "Honey, I served the kids!". One out of every 10 drinks poured in America is given to an underage kid. And parents may be the biggest reason why.
According to the government, 30% of teens said their last alcoholic drink was served at home. And 21% said a parent or other family member played bartender.
It's part of a new trend. Moms and dads buy the booze to keep kids under their roof and off the road. But teaching them to drink responsibly is no substitute for parenting responsibly.
Parents should be teaching their kids what is right and wrong not encouraging them to do things which are wrong. Do you think in some cases it might be the parents who need to be grounded.
What do you think.
Until Next Time
