They are holding parents responsible here for underage drinking/drug parties when they're held in the home and it seems to have helped.
Some kids go bad even when brought up in responsible homes,but the majority of times they will turn out fine.
Discipline has to be tempered with being reasonable imho, and they need to be encouraged when they do the right thing.
It takes something like 12 good things said about a kid to make up for 1 degrading comment.
The compliments have to be based on the truth, they know when they're being patronized.
