Are you kidding me lay the blame where it belongs. All 4 are over 18 to act as if the parents are at fault is ludicrous. If people thought i was to blame for my kids actions or decisions. Well as a parent we can raise them and hope they will do right. How quick some are to judge others i suppose we can blame their parents for being so judgmental. But i myself will keep everyone in my prayers. And pray everyone will turn ti God for guidance

Congratulations Shannon, you accept responsibility for not knowing what your child was doing. You just don’t see that anymore. However, the parents should learn a lesson here as well as the young adults. Most of you treat your adult age (17-18 yr olds) children as just that, children. When are you going to teach them to grow up? After they do something that PTD won’t be offered for? It would be a little late then huh? It is your responsibility as a parent to teach these lessons before they have to learn the hard way. Make your child a responsible person by first showing you are responsible. $1,000 says these people learn nothing from this, any takers?

As a mom of one of the teens…they were all four accused of doing the
same thing, They all knew what they were doing and for the ones that
got off “free” make me sick. They were doing what they want and as we
see only two are getting a lesson in life. Kids today are responsible
for owning up to their own mistakes, even if their parents are in
denial. They were all four in the same car and should have known what
was in the car. That just floors me. It was in the car all of them
were riding in that was Taylors. Parents…know who your kids are with
and make them take responsibility for their own mistakes and learn
from them.

I think it is crazy. All were in the wrong. Doing the same thing together. I guess we know who was raised right.

I have a small portable air compressor in my truck… I use it for pumping up my tires… Does this mean, if stopped, I could get charged for having drug paraphernalia?
