Another underage drinking party in Barrington RI, with parents hosting. Small wonder why we have such a high incidence of underage consumption in this town when so many parents enable the behavior. It's not about funding the BayTeam or spending large amounts of money on guest speakers like Chris Heron. It is about parents being parents. It is important that adults, teachers, and coaches in the community lead by example. Underage substance use leads to adult addiction. The success rate is so low for recovery. Why let your child start.
