if cops get involved. your daughter just ****** your life

@ everyone screaming "recycle" :: Yeah, because that's clearly the bigger issue in this case. Pull your sanctimonious heads out of your asses. @ OP :: don't let statistics (or some of these other lushes) fool you; that shit is /not/ okay. Deal with your daughter, but do it on her level, because if you try to pull rank ("I'm your mother, do as I say!"), she will probably just do more of the same. Only more often.

If the school would have found out her kid had a bottle of vodka they would have launched an investigation - they might have took her kids away from her temporarily.

People should know that this whole vodka in a water bottle thing is common amung teenagers,yes even in school. Although it's never enough to get you fully drunk just a little buzzed. But still everyones making such a big deal about the alcoholic 16 year old it's actually common for most 16 year olde to have a water bottle. Be glad she doesn't have a full on glass bottle of it

@118, just because it's common for a 16 year old to have vodka in a water bottle, it doesn't make it right.

FFS stop criticising the 16 year old. She probably just had vodka in a water bottle to hide it from her parents for an upcoming party. Only Americans are so puritanical as to not let people drink until they're 21 - it's hardly surprising that kids rebel and drink anyway.

Ugh, there is so much stupid on this thread it's hard to know where to start responding. PET poisoning has never been sufficiently proven. How does everyone magically know that the OP doesn't reuse water bottles? 8 year old kids lose their water bottles. They also need to be washed, occasionally. It is possible to run out. Person who drinks =/= alcoholic. Person who possesses alcohol =/= person who carries alcohol on them at all times. This applies to 16 year olds as much as anybody else. Ugh, sometimes this site does my head in. And yet I keep coming back. It's like crack. Or, water bottles full of vodka :P Fin.

omfg this is hysterical. **** your son's life, he's the one who's getting the brunt of it.

wow. poor second grader && poor you for having to ground the hell out of your daughter

#8 Some people have bad water filters, Dont have running water, Or just the kid doesnt like tap water
