I have absolutely no problem saying she did the right thing. Too few parents stand up for that which is right.

What is a keg law violation?

Sounds like a bunch of Democrats. Hate the parent who ruined their party. Forced the parents to actually...parent.

This is happening all over the place. I know first hand that it is. High school teens are having wild parties all over the country on a regular basis and very little is being done about it. It is really sad. Prelude to destruction...

Blair wouldn't confirm widespread rumors that the videotape depicted teens involved in sexual activity, but he did say no sexual misconduct charges would be filed.

If any of the persons involved in the sexual activity were minors then it would be child porn. But then some say "it's just sex".

"From the outside looking in, it looks really bad," said Gay Georges, whose daughter, Shelby, is a senior at Bellbrook High School. "But I know so many of those kids who were involved, and they're good kids, polite kids, respectful. They may have done something wrong, but it breaks your heart. I feel very lucky my daughter wasn't there."

Since the story broke, Blair said, parties involving underage drinking appear to be on the wane. "I can only hope this has been an eye-opener for parents," he said. "What the parents don't understand is the liability they assume when they allow students to drink in their home. They could lose everything they have. Regretfully they have the attitude that 'it's only beer.' They want to be a friend and a buddy and not a parent. There's a big difference. When you're a parent you have to make the hard decisions and not be well-liked. It's a bear."

The disappointment shouldn't be in the teens, who are going to try to do wrong, but in the parents who abused the community trust and aided the teens in doing wrong.

Interesting take on a "custody" issue.

I think I would have gone straight to the police with the tape; I'm not sure why she went to the Principal. One thing I would not have done is tell the other parents and expect them to take action.

Of course, since the Clinton administration we have had a new definition of what sexual activity is, as well as what is is.

[TheBigB]

She did exactly the right thing. The biggest problem with family units nowadays can be summed up in this sentence..."They want to be a friend and a buddy and not a parent."

[stylin19a]

Did she do the right thing?"

From the outside looking in, how could any of us know?

huh ? how could anyone even ask that question ?

[apillar]

...and kids the moral of todays story is... Never videotape anything that could come back to haunt you later...
