ah I see in that case....Anyone else can feel free to debate this. Or start a new thread in the right section specifically to debate it. I still stand by saying Im not here to debate it.... I was agreeing with the mom

And that's a good example of being pedantic.

Yes but if you actualy want to debate over the issue. Bring it to debates. Otherwise, do not expect everyone who walks into this thread to debate with you about it. And this is the last time Im saying it

Who says he was drinking and driving?
i dont intend getting into an argument with you over this ,,,but since the car is of such great importance to american teenagers and he isnt going to drink it in the house,its clear that he will drive somewhere to do so....also if he drives everyday he will be over the limit....im lucky i have a husband who takes turns in drinking so that one of us is not over the legal limit the day after..


when he gets his next car ill buy her a breathalizer to test the little bugger before and after he goes out.

Moved. Feel free to continue debating in this case now. Unless tim/v thinks it should be moved back. *shrugs* whatever works though

So thats friggen queer. He wasn't drinking and drinking but because he disobeyed her rules she sold a car she bought just 2 months ago? She overreacted and I'm sticking to my statement!

If the mother bought the car, and if the rule was no booze, and if she found booze which means the rule was broken, then she can decide what to do about the broken rule. She chose to sell the car. BFD. Yeah, she could have picked another way to get her point across. And yeah, she could have punished him in another way. And yeah, it might have been overreaction. And yeah, it might have been wasted money. But so what? It was her car. It's her kid. The story was a report on what is probably a refreshing change in how a parent handles a kid's problem. Most parents would not have done it that way. That's why it made the news. You won't find any articles entitled, "Mother Finds Booze in Teenager's Car and Takes Away His Keys". The good thing is no one is hurt. Whether or not the kid was actually drinking and driving is moot. A rule was broken; she reacted. Props. IMO, a parent that actually parents is much better than one who ignores everything their kid does.

Could she have taught the same lesson without selling the car?
