Well, you did give him $10.  That's dangerous money right there!!

Nah not in airports anymore, that's a coke and a bag of chips.

Dude this is the child that got into my liquor cabinet with his buddies last year and mixed my Macallan with Dr. Pepper.  I don't think they will serve him in any bar after that blasphemy!!

Shoot at that age they think they know everything and that you know nothing and they like to try to push boundaries.

Strike 1: Leaving liquor cabinet open

Strike 2: Not teaching your child that you do not mix Macallan (unles you mix it with more Macallan)

Strike 3: Dr. Pepper? Really? Who drinks that stuff anymore

I think you should ground yourself.

Liquor cabinet is never locked and will stay that way.  Honestly I would rather he did something stupid like this at home where he is fairly safe and I think locking it promotes it as something to be rebellious about.  Also, there is almost no liquor in my liquor cabinet.  The bottle of The Macallan he got into had been opened for about a year and was still less than 1/3 drunk.  Right now I think there is one unopened bottle of Japanese Scotch, a Bottle of Glen Morangie and some Baily's in there.

Oh yes I did!  He decided to push those boundaries we talked about.

My Husband, I know but I will keep him anyway.

10 bucks at an airport...Geez the poor kid will starve to death.  That only buys a pack of twizzlers or a small bag of trail mix.  Even water is $4. He will probably just make friends at the bar! 

Well I haven't received any frantic "I missed my plane" calls or texts so I guess he is in the air.

Or he found some friends that made his $10 go further.  

You know I really doubt he would give up his chance to go to camp for that.  It is a co-ed camp btw.

Aw Damn now I am not helping either!

Oooh a 15 year old at co-ed camp in the mountains.  At his age, he is a walking hormone.  And he'll be around girls.

What could go wrong?

You would think it would get better after all these years....

Not Helping!!!

That's what she said!

And by that I mean...did you check with her "parents". They might think they are driving to CA with you. And yes, that famous FRiend's AunT HOUSE.

^^X2  First thing I thought of when I read this!

Wow you guys are just ever so helpful ans supportive.....

Didn't say it was...just said thats the first thing that came to mind!

(once at camp he will use the money in a poker game, Leverage the winnings to build a still and organize an "unofficial" camp activity schedule with the co-ed camplike, late night water polo, alternative archery, and group "sing-a-long"
