Study; Parents Shouldn’t Allow Teen Drinking At Home
As prom night and senior all night parties approach, many parents are wondering if they should just allow their teens to drink alcohol at home, rather than at a kegger or a home party elsewhere.

The newly passed Social Host Ordinance would definitely pose a problem to parents who allow their children to drink alcohol to excess and subsequently break the law or harm someone. Hear more on this issue this week on the Montana Morning News from 6 to 8:30 am on KGVO 1290 AM in Missoula and KLYQ 1240 AM in Hamilton.
