Please, please, please…if you’re going to “make a difference” to make yourself feel better, just stop. This isn’t your therapy, this isn’t your angst, these aren’t your bad decisions to facilitate. If you are going to step up then step up all the way, not half-assed. If you’re going to parent, then parent and do it consistently. Because when you don’t, I get to pick up the pieces and you go on your merry little way.
These kids aren’t toys, they aren’t entertainment, and they’re not your salvation. Sorry to rant but I’m watching someone who claims to care allow a minor a safe place to make bad decisions and the crap just gets everywhere. We’re the adults and yes, we’re allowed to make our own bad decisions but we’re not allowed to sit by and let someone (a kid...a minor...a chronological adult) who doesn’t know any better make the same ones and not say something. If they’re under your roof it isn’t a freaking popularity contest, it’s a responsibility. So, grow up…stop being afraid and be the village.
