I'm a HUGE enemy of driving after drinking, to the point of being annoying. So good for you for making it clear that will not be tolerated! A brand new 21-year-old, even one so awesome as KC, still isn't equipped have all of his brain properly engaged without a little evil stepmonster help.

I totally agree, Pup. I know he knows all the horrors that could occur. I also know that he knows I am tough enough to remove the car from his grasp should he screw up in this area.

I love him very much but not enough to tolerate that. He was sober when he came home. I know he parked the car and had 2 drinks early in the night. He stopped drinking 3 hours before driving.

I'm 49. I can translate. He had four drinks and stopped about 2 hours before driving.

Now, I would have liked that to have been 5 hours but I also know that he was sober when he came in. He and I had already had the "don't bother chewing gum" talk as well.

Can't get that past me at least.
