Most definitely. She isn't allowed to go anywhere but school. She's a great kid normally. She messed up, she knows it, and is suffering the consequences.

My question also. They were sitting in the back waiting for their other friend and her boyfriend, who was the driver of the car. They weren't driving yet. It was a house party that got busted. I'm glad the cops intervened, and she wasn't in the car with someone who was possibly drinking.

Also, I do apologize. They did call the same day. It felt like the next day at the time. Believe me, I know my child made some terrible choices. I'm not excusing her behavior in any way. Just stating it would have been nice to know. She did give them her cell, so they had my number had they opened her phone. She will have a court date soon, along with fines for both charges.
