I pose a question for the many wise members of BYC

I am 100% against this since I have seen the damage alcohol does to teens/youg developing minds and families.

Even some places in America its legal for a parent to give their child alcohol.

Although it is commonly believed that the minimum drinking age in the U.S. is 21, people can legally drink below that age under many different circumstances.

The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 required all states to raise their minimum purchase and public possession of alcohol age to 21. States that did not comply faced a reduction in highway funds under the Federal Highway Aid Act.... It does not prohibit persons under 21 (also called youth or minors) from drinking. The term "public possession" is strictly defined and does not apply to possession for the following:

•An established religious purpose, when accompanied by a parent, spouse or legal guardian age 21 or older
•Medical purposes when prescribed or administered by a licensed physician, pharmacist, dentist, nurse, hospital or medical institution
•In private clubs or establishments
•In the course of lawful employment by a duly licensed manufacturer, wholesaler or retailer. 1

My mom, let us as teens have a few drinks at a party at our house.. (She never drank) Just so we wouldn't be elsewhere trying tings, with that being said drinking to us was like to coolers...
Your not being a fuddy duuddy,,,

I would not be happy either,,,

CAS is an option.. Even if they don't do anything, they may scare her into sobriety?

in the 5(ish) years this kind of behavior has been going on CAS has been to the house about 10X. Its usually the MIL who calls, I have made a few calls, and who knows who else.

The kids will lie to CAS and say its all lies because they know what will happen if they tell the truth... they will be yanked out of the house but they also think mom is being "cool" by allowing this and even buying the booze for them.
 
How about calling the police when you know the partying is going on...say noise or teenage drinking.

Also, I would have a straight up chat with the Mother referring to a good old fashioned A$# whipping if she ever sends an inappropiate text like that to my husband ever again. She may as well been offering up the daughter like a pimp!

I understand the gist of it, but what exactly is "smoking saliva"????

Edited to add: never mind..I looked it up...I thought it was "saliva" as in spit , but it's "salvia" as in plant.
