The internet has more on it than you can begin to imagine. You can go to websites and learn how to make drugs from everyday items, their effects, danger, etc…to the chemical makeup of LSD or how to make Crystal Meth.- Don’t underestimate a child’s power to deceive. The more they deceive the better they become at deception. Practice paying attention to your child when they’re younger and it won’t seem so strange to them when they are older.
- Don’t be in denial about your children and do not think that your child would not do what others do.
- Bailing your child out does not help them one bit. Actually, it hurts more than you can ever know. Most kids know this already…they just don’t care because they have already learned that there are no real consequences. Telling them that it’s going to be all right doesn’t help either. They need you (parents) to hold them accountable for their actions.
- Sex is happening all the time. You have to know what your kid is doing at your house and what they are doing at other people’s houses. Most things will happen at your house if there is already a history of doing it there. Kids get comfortable with a routine and the only way to find out what is going on is to disrupt that routine randomly. This doesn’t just apply to sex…it is for everything.

This is a great list and easy to follow, but as parents we all need to reinforce these rules in our own lives, and in our childrens lives, as well… Keep up the great work, and on behalf of parents everywhere, I commend you for the outstanding job you’re doing to keeping Paul Anderson dream alive…
