Well last night was an interesting evening, after carting 9 kids in the car, they all went off to a party. The latest trend with the teenagers is that someone books a venue, provides music and bouncers and publishes it on facebook, then ALL the kids arrive, pay their R40 - R50 cover charge and party the night away.
The problem with these parties are all the looser older kids 20+ that arrive and want to be cool, so they come with drinks and offer it to the younger kids.
Last night when I went to pick the kids up, they climbed in the car and I could smell straight away that one of them had been drinking, but 5 large 16year olds in a small Yaris, I couldn't work out who it was.
Well it didn't take me long as by the time we got home, one of them leaned out the window as we pulled into the garage and proceeded to throw up - LOVELY!!
He then stumbled into the house and passed out on the bed - now I was in a dilemma, has the child got alcohol poisoning, do I phone his folks to come fetch him? Rob was out on patrol so called him and he came home, managed to get the guy awake and outside to drink water. 4 glasses later the guy stumbled back to bed and passed out - this morning he came through rather sheepishly and apologised - but truthfully I don't think he learnt his lesson and will be doing it again.
Claims he can't remember what he drank, or how much - hmmmmmm . . . .
Was very pleased though that Chris wasn't part of this, although he does claim he was offered drinks as well. Oh the joys!!!
