There are things that show up in the papers which I think should qualify as news. Today's Guardian has a front page story in which they feature the results of an "exclusive poll" which indicates that parents don't know what their kids get up to. According to the article two thirds of parents don't know that their kids have tried drugs. For fuck's sake to me this is an indication that parents are more involved in their kid's lives. When I was sixteen we were much more resourceful and secretive. I don't think any of our parents knew we had "tried" drugs even less that that we used them with considerable regularity.
