[QUOTE="mom_in_training, post: 5446, member: 2727"] Wow CAmom, Can you send that PO my way? Lol!! I like his style. You have to remember that these PO's deal with allot of kids that have done worse but the cool thing is that they show no preference in the ways that they deal with any offender and it should be that way. If they were preferential it would mean that they are letting their guard down and that alone can turn into a dangerous situation. They treat everyone the same. I am glad that you now have the law on your side. I'll tell ya, I have discovered that the only way that my difficult child will be able to get that rude awakening is to get caught doing something stupid and sadly at this point I see it coming considering the way she is going. How sad that the worse has to happen before the police actually do their job when it comes to a drunk teen. I have had my difficult child brought home in cuffs (Drunk) and dropped in my lap with no consequences from the very police that are supposed to be upholding the laws that we have in place for underage drinking. Go figure, Why do we have the laws if the laws are never upheld. In some ways it may be a blessing (Referring to $ fines that the parent will have to endure) but in other ways it does not help matters when the parent or parents are in save mode trying to head off the worst from happening in their difficult children future. Its like we are stuck and can only do so much as the parent. [/QUOTE]
