What Else To Do About Parties?
-
Never provide alcohol, marijuana or other drugs to a minor or allow minors to drink or use marijuana or other drugs on your property.
-
Actively supervise all gatherings of youth.
-
Be present and aware.
-
Let other parents and adults know what you expect from them.
-
Let your neighbors know if you will be out of town or away for the night so they can alert you or law enforcement if a party is held.
-
Call the police if you know a party that might happen or is happening. You could save a life. You can report anonymously.
-
Always call 911 in the case of an emergency – even if your actions contributed to underage drinking. Police will consider your efforts to address the emergency when issuing a penalty.
