It was bound to happen, but so soon?

Just a couple of weeks after the BBC did its slot on eyeballing vodka the copy cats have started but not quite where you might imagine.

Last weekend my 14 year old son went to a house party which was shut down by the Mum in charge when the 13 and 14 year olds started eyeballing the hard stuff. Now I'm not naive enough to think a bit of alcohol and, perish the thought some herbal cigarettes don't make it into the hands of impressionable early teenagers but you have to wonder where we go from here.

Next it will be babies rolling Farley Rusk reefers and toddlers freebasing Calpol.
