[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 716481, member: 1550"] More troubled adults and teens always talked this way. They just did it in person, and the parents were none the wiser. They never knew as it was not on social media. My high school bestie in the 1970s did drugs, got pregnant, ran away etc. I was nof at all like her, but I did keep my mouth shut. I also took her to drug parties and, being the only sober person there, heard it all. Remember the 70s? At least where I lived and went to school, I felt like the only kid who didnt take drugs and have sex. Watching people on LSD and Quaaludes bored me a lot. Sometimes I was disgusted. But I was loyal. I never blew any whistles. It was very bad. Our Summer of Love generation was horrific. We started all this. I lived in an upper class priveledged suburb of Chicago. Kids had money. Some stole just for the fun of it. Drugs were rampant. So were overdoses, even at school. I think its been like this for a long time minus the social media where parents can spy. Living together is so socially acceptable these days. The nicest people do it. What young adult refrains because his mother doesnt like it? Parents get divorced all the time and do it too. I lived eith hun of 22 years for two years before we married. There are infinite choices for young people now. We would have to jump back to the early 1960s to find a time before excessive use of pot and strict morals about not living together before marriage existed. Society has changed. Since when did young people do what their parents wanted? But our parents couldnt see what we were up to, like they can now. Im not sure its better, now that parents can check. Hang in there. It is hard. It is very hard [/QUOTE]
