Specifically our 14 year old daughter.......But I'm sure I'm not alone..
Complains a lot.
Because we won’t let her go out with “school friends” (and their friends, and older brothers their friends, etc), or let her go to clubs/pubs and drink.
We are happy for her to have a small glass of wine, or a slurp of beer, with us, at home, on occasion, but not the WKD’s, vodka Red Bulls, etc she is after – either at home or out and about.
Obviously, we are mean, and all her friends drink....The good news is that none of her friends smoke !
So my question is what do/would you do – How do you introduce a stroppy teenager to being RESPONSIBLE with alcohol ?
