Oh, Old Row, we might be holier than thou NOW, but our parties were every bit as bad, stupid, dangerous, etc., as yours are now. Actually, I think generally kids are savvier about what's what than they were back in my day, the 80's. The problem for so many parents is, yes, I might have done several seriously stupid and health threatening things as a teenager, but my kids would NEVER do any of that. Sleep with a boy she doesn't know? Get so drunk she passes out in a fraternity house? My snowflake? NEVER! Which is to say the exact same thing our parents were saying 30 and 40 years ago.
