Many parents believe allowing their teens to drink at home under supervision is a safe way to introduce alcohol.
But the hard truth is it's not just risky – it's potentially dangerous.
Here’s what you need to know:
1. It's not an effective strategy
Allowing underage drinking at home doesn't reduce risks. It can lead to serious and negative consequences for both parents and children.
2. It increases the risk of alcohol abuse
Recent research from "The Partnership Attitude Tracking Study" (PATS) shows that teens who perceive their parents to be more permissive about alcohol use are more likely to abuse alcohol and use other drugs.
3. Legal and civil liability
As a social host, allowing underage drinking in your home puts you at great legal and civil risk. If an incident, injury, or car accident occurs due to alcohol consumed at your home, you may be held liable.
Your decisions about alcohol in your home can have far-reaching effects on your children's future.
Best strategy? Talk to your teens about the implications of underage drinking – mental health challenges, health issues, and even public embarrassment can put a dark print on your child’s life.

Upper Saddle River police arrested a trio of New Yorkers – two of them women from Dutchess County, the other a violent ex-con from Orange County -- in a prostitution bust just south of the state line.
Shareaf Brown, 31, of Monroe, had been charged with a shooting in Yonkers six years ago and then arrested again earlier this year by Port Jervis police for abducting a woman and breaking into a home and assaulting someone there.
During the Upper Saddle River arrest last week, Brown “struck a responding officer numerous times with a swinging door resulting in minor injuries,” Capt. Edward Kane said.
Brown was charged with assaulting a police officer, as well as promoting prostitution, possessing/distributing crack, hindering apprehension, obstruction and illegal possession of a knife, the captain said.
He remained held today in the Bergen County Jail nearly a week after the raid.
Brown apparently was freed pending trial following an arrest in January for a pair of incidents in Port Jervis – one for allegedly assaulting a woman and holding her against her will late last December and the other for breaking into a home and assaulting a resident with a baseball bat on New Year’s Eve.
Yisena Rivera, 21, of High Park, and Avianna Rodrigues, 24, of Poughkeepsie, were both charged with cocaine possession following the Upper Saddle River raid. Rodrigues also was charged with promoting prostitution. Both were released pending court action.

This is not acceptable! These people come here because so many feel like we live in a safe neighborhood or community when actuality were sitting target do not leave your cars unlocked. Keep your fobs in your house. I walk through my neighborhood and I see so many people that leave their doors unlocked. That’s a big no no.we are sitting ducks to those that want to steal from us.
Rediculous! Did the Crime do the Time. Thank you Law Makers for making it easy for criminals and bad people to get out jail so easy! Our Police Officers risk their lives for these idiots and drug users and they have no more rights to protect people and have the Courts back then! Something is waaaay wrong with our system.
Good job
Amazing he is out again
Why do so many illegal things happen at that motel? Can it be shut down because of providing a haven to such criminal behavior?
Thank you to everyone who joined us for Coffee with a Cop this year. See you next October.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.0 CommentsComment on Facebook
