If you feel the need to test your teen as a parent, then you've already failed.

I wouldn't dream of testing my child, as a good parent-child relation ship is based on communication and trust. As for "my parents test me" -- today a choice tomorrow mandatory? No thanks. This sets a dangerous precedent. And by the way, my child knows that Ritalin and vaccinations are also harmful drugs, just to name a few...

If you teach your children real world consequences, they can make good choices. Kids themselves know, that its both the kids who's parents are totally over barring & give their kids no freedom, & the kids who are given total freedom, that get in the most trouble. The first group acts out once they have freedom, because they never had it & will do so to spite you, the second group acts out because even negative attention is better than none. The middle has their parent's respect & understanding.

This is ridiculous. A) smoking pot once in a while is no more harmful than drinking, and b) drug testing your own children? Give me a break. This will just push them away. If they're smoking pot once in a while, you don't have a problem. If they're doing harder drugs, testing them is just going to make it worse. Fail.

Drug use does tend to come form mainly peer pressure but the cause of teens succumbing to peer pressure is a result of lack of trust acceptance instilled by the parent and mimicked by the child. Kids wouldnt care much about peer pressure if they had partents that truly listened to, understood, and accepted their child for who they were. Drugs give them the friends("ears"), understanding(friends), and acceptance(friends), that they lacked at home. What kids lack at home is looked for elsewhere

Another easy out for shitty parents who will now ignore their kids real issues with how garbage this world is.
I'm sure this will cause suicides.
GJ world. Keep bowing to money, and clinging to pointless remedies which NEVER EVER work.

rugtesting(d0t)html The proper way parents with 3 or more brain cells should treat this problem is obviously to raise their kids well instead of sucking ass at it. Talking to them, caring about them, being open. Nature. Love.

There are simpler explanations to this, like doing drugs to forget problems.. doing drugs because you are curious or doing drugs out of boredom/doing drugs to have fun. I think testing your kid's choices is a good idea but just advising them also works, In the end their own will determines what they will do.

dont let them take ritalin
I am all for preventing drug abuse by anyone but to test seems like admitting failure. A failure to properly prepare your child to be stronger than the peer pressure or the temptation. And another thing, testing is fine for known drug abusers and criminals but not for my children. What I would like to see, beyond the TSAesq mentality of testing, let's close our borders to the drug trade. Let's get rid of the illegals and their drug trade. Those are positive steps.

@joesphx19 Good kids can be tempted to make bad choices... it's part of growing up. I respect your opinion and feel however that asking a teen to participate in a PROPERLY ADMINISTERED home drug testing program (where REWARDS as well as consequences are tied to results.. like what happens if your kid gets A's or F's on a report card) is more like PREVENTING failure than admitting it.
