At 16 I had a curfew of 11 or so but I never paid any attention to it, and after a while my mom (dad had taken a walk years earlier) just gave up. I was hanging around with an older crowd that liked to drink and smoke, ahem, "herbal medicines"
I drank a bit, never smoked, though had they been busted I would have gone down with them. Very, very stupid, and if I ever catch either of my kids doing what I did there'll be hell to pay. I turned out OK though, and still managed to graduate 3rd in my high school class (over 15 years ago - damn, I'm old!).
