Re: Re: Child drug test

i find it hard to imagine that you would drug test a child of 9-do they have crack dealers at primary school now? or am i misunderstanding what the purpose of the test is? it seems to me that drug testing your children will do one thing-let them know that you don't trust them, and without trust from both sides there is no way that your relationship with your child can be healthy

Re: Re: Re: Child drug test

We decided to start "young" by some standards I guess so that by the time our daughter got into questionable situations, the pattern would be established, and there would be another reason for her to say "NO" to drugs. Random testing doesn't say we don't trust, it says we care enough to make sure...
