PARENT & TEEN CONTRACT TEEN: I do know that the legal drinking age is 21 and that using or having alcohol in my possession is illegal. You and I have spoken about the concerns you have regarding this issue. I understand that I NEVER have your permission to use alcohol underage. Because I love you and you want me to be safe, I make the following promise: I promise that I will not abuse alcohol either at home or away from home. If I am in a situation where I have used alcohol or my friends have used alcohol, I promise that I will call you, my parents, for a ride home. I promise to talk with you, openly and honestly, about alcohol. I know that because you love me, you always want me to be safe. __________________ ________________ Date:____________ PARENT : As your parent, I agree that I will never drive a vehicle after I have been drinking or be a passenger of someone who has been drinking. If I am in a situation where I have been drinking, I WILL call someone for a safe ride home. As your parent, if you call me for a ride home because you or your friends have used alcohol, I agree to come and get you at any hour from any place, no questions asked and no argument at that time. I will arrange transportation to bring you home safely. Expect there to be a discussion of such an incident at a later time when we can both communicate in a calm and sober manner. Because we are a family, I want us all to be safe. ____________________ _______________ Date:____________
