Preventing DUIReply to this Comment
Parents: If you are concerned that your child might be driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol take heart, there is good news, and it is called Cleared2Drive.
Even though the Cleared2Drive System is very discreet and simple to use, it is highly effective in detecting impairment. Because we know how much appearance means to our children, the Cleared2Drive System has been designed to be so discreet that passengers don’t even realize that anything out of the ordinary is being done. The driver only has to perform 6 simple tasks and they are on their way – usually in about 10 seconds.
In order to start the car, the driver must perform a sequence of 6 simple tasks like placing their finger on fingerprint sensor which will instantly recall their unique algorithm. After that there are 5 more quick and easy tasks to perform like fastening your seat belt, turning on the headlights, taping the brake, turning on the right turn signal, and turning on the heater.
Cleared2Drive confirms what scientists have known for years; when a person is impaired their reaction time is diminished. Cleared2Drive’s bio-metric identification and sophisticated computer algorithms detect when a person is impaired from prescription, illegal, over-the-counter drugs and/or alcohol by measuring the amount of time it takes a person to complete their assigned sequence of tasks. Cleared2Drive instantly compares a person’s current data to their historical data and if the two sets don’t match, the system won’t permit the vehicle to be started. It’s just that simple.
If you have begged, pleaded, or talked till you are blue in the face, yet you suspect your under age child is driving under the influence then Cleared2Drive can help you. For more information go to www.cleared2drive.com

Angry Teenage son...Reply to this Comment
I have a 15 yr old teenage son. He's very artistic and is fun to be around, but in the last year, he's been acting out and seems always angry. He's lashing out at his dad, who does not take yelling very lightly! They've had toe to toe confrontations and the escalating yelling is going no where!! I've told my husband that I don't want to deal with this in a violent way. I was reassuring my son that we're trying our best to parent him and that everything happens for a reason, but he seems to think we're against him and he doesn't like us anymore.. that sort of thing. He keeps challenging his dad, and I know my husband is going to raise that hand of his, because he's really pissed off at him right now.
We need to learn to understand how to resolve this problem. How you raise an angry teenage male is beyond me!! hahaha... I don't know what to say or do anymore. I've given in to him (my son) so many times. I've given him everything he's asked for and then some.
Is he just acting like a spoiled child that needs discipline?? What does that look like and where do we start?? ..
UUuhhhggg... HELP!!!

This is a very serious problem and it is something that needs to be addressed because it can affect their entire life and they just do not understand that! I agree with the teen you replied to who offered to talk to other teens because they are more likely to listen to someone their own age than their parents.
Martial ArtsReply to this Comment
Is Martial arts a good activity to help a troubled teen? I was watching a program on TV when I first heard about it:
http://community.coc-elite.com/video/268/Stephan-Fox-MAD-Muay-Thai-Against-Drugs.aspx
Would it provide good discipline? Or would my teen just end up using this against people...? I'm more than willing to join him if we go for this.
Let us help these troubles teensReply to this Comment
Do you have a rebellious daughter, son, sister or brother? Are they mixing with the wrong crowd? Do they have failing grades at school? If your answer is yes but don't have enough time to send them at camps. Teen Wilderness Program can help you.
