Late Night Fun?

Is there really a curfew in town for kids? Really?

I ask because this past Saturday night, the teen-daughter was supposed to be home at her regular midnight "witching hour," but didn't roll in until about 1:25AM. So how does a teenage female manage to be out and about at that time without being seen or noticed? Driving through town, dropping friends off - it's not like she's exactly stealth about what she's doing.

And we find it difficult to tell her, "No, you have to be home by midnight since there's a town curfew for teenagers," when the curfew is neither followed nor enforced.

Why get worked up about it? Because parents worry. Parents are concerned that the kids are making bad, spur-of-the-moment choices (mostly due to peer pressure and influence of others at the moment).

And hell, she had our car!
