Parents add drug tests to shopping lists

A friend of mine applied for a job where they told him he would be drug tested. It was a five-panel. The actually listed the drugs they were looking for. I guess I just don't live in a big enough city, but I have never seen PCP. (Never looked for it, but still.) But he can take all the benzos he pleases! Seriously, if you are going to test for drugs why on earth would you give someone a cheat sheet?

Exactly. Where is the trust when the little punk kids go around being somewhat obvious that they're sneaking behind peoples backs and doing drugs then lying about it when questioned about it?

If drug testing is the only way parents prevent their kids from taking drugs, what's gonna happens when they aren't there to test them?
 
i think it would be interesting to take a home piss test and compare the results to the drugs ive done recently

hey i have some on my desk i ordered from ebay a while ago, along with a tramadol hydrochloride soup cup hehe. it's called AimScreen from Germaine(tm) laboratories, inc.

tests for cocaine, (meth)amphetamine, and THC. I took ecstasy (2 pills) and marijuana (two hits) yesterday, so i think (m)amp and thc should show up

ok. my urine smells and its definitly not too watery--its almost bronze. (if anyone would like hte cup after this experiment just PM me, u might get a slight MDMA/THC buzz)

it's as i predicted... cocaine: negative, (meth)amphetamine: positive, THC: positive

what's also good is that it says positive samples should be confirmed by a lab

i have another test i can do when there are no drugs in my system, and see if there is a positive. i'll wait a week for this

I make a game out of drug test kits,
see how many postives i can notch up in one go,
still trying to get them all:D

Gotta catch 'em all?
 
my parents sent me to rehab when I was 14 and drug tested me through out highschool. I didn't stop using drugs, but I did become very proficent at passing drug tests :D

whatever, this lady sucks..
 
This gives me an idea, I am going to make drug testing kits for sale to the public. There is one catch though, they are always negative even if you just smoked a 12'' long joint of Haze. I wonder how long I could sell them before someone noticed they didnt even work. Muahhaha
 
Just make the sensitivity VERY low, and even when it's positive make the "control strip" turn color the same rate...
lol

confuse the FUCK out of them
 
My parents have done the same thing with my brother because they found out he was sneaking out and smoking weed everyday. They got a bunch of them, and he ended up passing by drinking a ton of water and peeing a few times, even though he smoked an 8th the night before. If my mom ever tries to test me, I'm moving out. It's bullshit to not be able to trust your kids. If she asked me because she was worried if I was, I'd tell her if I needed help, but considering her threat of taking away my license, I'd just move out if she tried to make it a big deal. I'd rather live on my own than put up with her ignorance.

If she ever tries to test me, I'll probably get someone else to pee in a bag for me.
 
It will prepare them for all the future drug tests they will endure in that nazi country 8)
 
I drink/do some drugs and i'm nearly 16, my parents have no idea about the drug use...mainly because i don't let it affect me or my life. I'm in totall controll of what i do and i feel that drugs such as cannabis and megic mushrooms benefit me in many different ways. I really doubt that my parents would drug test me (if they found out), they have never taken any illegal drugs before and if they did ever find out my first action would be to sit down with them and explain why i take some drugs/what i take and reassure them that i'm responsible enough to accept the consequences of my own actions. If we did have a massive row about it (for whatever reason) i would be really angry with them as they have never experimented with illeegal drugs and therefore cannot judge me as all they know are the lies the government feeds them and the people my mother has to deal with (as a councilor) who have been messes up by drugs. I would never let my parents drug test me, i'm too freewilled to let someone invade my privacy like that. I think that drug testing your children makes you a failure as a parent, as you cannot have sensible descussions and are forced to treat them like a criminal. My respose to being drug tested would be to continue as before and not change in the least...i would probably try more drugs that don't show up on drug tests or i would buy tests that stop drug tests from working which i could easily get my hands on :p
 
Surpringsly some of these at home test kits test for hydrocodone and hydromorphone but not oxycodone.
 
^Vicodin is easier to get than oxycontin, so more kids do it - at least in my experience
 
they didn't say WHY she started in the first place. and i wish they asked if the parents had used drugs when they were kids and if so, how much/often/what
 
Not too many parents here, eh? I'm the father of a sixteen year old girl and a fifteen year old boy. I test them randomly. Why?

Read and understand.

I have taught my kids about government, the intrinsic flaws of authority, Bastiat, the conceits of religion, and yes, drugs.

They can prattle off just about anything, and both of them attend this very board regularly. They are somewhat disenchanted with drugs because recently they lost a close close friend to drug inhibited driving. He was a passenger. The driver lived, but was terrribly inured. Anyway...

They have seen two of their friends get pregnant while rolling, and watched the deteriorating health of many of their friends as they roll away, weekend after weekend, without taking the proper precautions of organ protection, rejuvination, seratonin replenishment, etc., etc. In short, they see first hand the destructive aspects of drugs, right up close.

Now, both of my kids have tried a multitude of drugs. Cocaine, X, weed, alcohol and speed so far. They knew they would be tested and caught. What were they thinking?

They told me. They limited their intake because they thought about the decreased chances of being detected. Also, they decided that they would talk to me about the experiences if I asked, but if I didn't test them they were going to remain silent on the issue altogether.

So what is accomplished here?

Two things: Moderation and communication.

Is that so bad? I agree that my kids live in a world where they are the custodians of their bodies. I have also described to them the legal consequences to ME and their MOTHER if they get caught. This tempers their use considerably. Do I want my kids to do drugs?

I will say this: I want my kids to RESPECT drugs, and the consequences that using has. I hope they know how to fool the tests. They are already familiar with the storebought false positives. Know why? Because when my son told me he had NOT done cocaine I TRUSTED him and went the extra mile to discover (while he watched) the existence of the false positives. I demonstrated that I can be open to his word over a test (I knew for a fact he had not done any ). I am not a fool. I monitor my kids and their friends very closely. Other students stay the fuck away from my daughter (she is 5'10" blonde/blue model material) because they know about me and that I watch and I react to bullshit quicker than lightning.

You can say all you want about trust. I agree. My kids trust me to watch out for their asses until they have learned the ropes.

I promised them both that if they tested clean throughout the school year we would go on a vacation to places where things can be examined...


I told them I would walk them through the worthwhile experiences myself, and that there were certain ones worth haveing, and not to waste them on bullshit unknowns with a bunch of punk asses who don't even know what they are selling. Later, we'll share some very special experiences in a legal, safer environment. They know I've done countless drugs. They know I've OD'ed and nearly died.

They know I trust them and love them. Hell, they might even stop by and post here in a reply.
You see now? Its not always about lack of trust.

Thanks for posting that.

I am a fairly new parent, and I guess my ASSumption is that when my children grow older they will give me back the respect I give them. I will teach them about drugs/life/career etc, and I expect honesty and truth back.

So do you believe that your children would not have told you of their drug use if you didn't test them? I'd be interested in hearing why they would not have been honest with you about drug use since you seem very understanding about experimentation and the life experiences that drug use can provide.
