Our son's one of the most liked and influential kids at his high school. But he wants us all to get out of this country. His mates are into drinking and smoking dope and he's finding it difficult to say no all of the time, preferring instead to stay at home on Friday nights.
Parties he goes to get gate-crashed all the time, in some cases, parents - who are there to make sure all is well - are getting bashed by the gate-crashers. Insane!
I was born and grew up in Perth. I lived away for 16 years but settled back here. I can't stand the place anymore.
