We Need to Talk: Teens and the Law

If you host a party for your teen and their friends, what is your liability if they drink or do drugs? What if this happens without your knowledge? When can police enter and search your home? What does it mean when Public Safety issues “tickets” for underage drinking? What legal consequences can result if your son has sex with a girl under the influence? How common are fake IDs, and what should you do if you find one? What are the curfews for driving and walking in Glencoe, and what happens when kids break them? Does New Trier suspend athletes who break the law? Do kids get expelled?

Learn from a panel of experts – including prosecutors, principals, a defense attorney and a Public Safety youth officer – about these and other potentially life-changing issues for you and your teen.
