Just when DH and I think we are in control of our 'fun-loving' teen, I found out we are not. We insist on knowing

We buried my DH's stepson just yesterday. They stayed close all these years later. He was only a few years out of his teens..... but he began drinking and doing drugs at a very young age, even did it with his mother (so he told me).
He died while very drunk, rolled his vehicle and was ejected. The pickup landed on his upper body.
I worry constantly about my DS drinking and driving. I'm afraid it's just a matter of time.

You wrote "There are some things you can write off as "normal teen behavior", but drugs and sex are not on that list. Sure, we all did it."
Maybe it's more normal behavior than you think.
By the way, flying in an airplane makes the chances of you DYING in a crash increase by 100% as opposed to not flying.
Does anyone think about that before they buy a ticket ?
BTW-Air travel is a necessity for many people, whereas recreational drugs and sex are not a necessity, especially for a teen. And actually, there are alot of people who do consider the risk of flying and choose not to fly.
I can't believe he is actually comparing air travel to recreational drugs - stop the insanity! LOL.
ps: i was married at 18 still am.

Thank you magdaelena - it's nice to get a 'real life' reminder that not every 14-17yo child is drinking/doing drugs/having sex.
