My son is so silly. He and some friends had a big party at their house last weekend. It got a little crazy and the police were called after 11 pm. The police pretty much gave everyone there a Minor In Possession ticket, even the person who was the designated driver. My son thinks that if he takes Minor in Possession Classes he may be able to get his ticket reduced or waved. He is going to ask for approval to take them online because he works on the weekends when the classes are available and he's afraid of losing his job if he can't put in enough hours.  Anything to keep his record clean is important to me. I really enjoyed having fun in college myself. I know that part of being in college and becoming an adult is having freedom and learning how to make better, more mature decisions. I just hope he comes out the other side of this experience without damaging his chances for the future. Maybe some Minor in Posession Classes will help him to realize the consequences of his actions so that he can make better choices.

We have encouraged our sister to give serious consideration to taking Alcohol Awareness Classes. It seems like ever since she became of an age and she was legally allowed to drink, she's had a problem with alcohol. Now if you were to talk to her about it, she would deny with her whole entire heart that she was an alcoholic. But there is almost never a time where you see her without a drink. For my sister having a good time means that she is getting drunk. There is absolutely no good time in her opinion if it does not involve alcohol. My sister has found herself in some horrible positions, because she was inebriated and did not have the wherewithal to protect herself from some extremely dangerous situations. We now hope that by having my sister take an 12 hour alcohol and drug awareness class online, she will begin to understand the risks she is taking on her body and mind.  The classes will give her the tools she needs to learn to help her stop the habit, but it's up to her to follow through.  Of course, we will be there every step of the way and would even sit with her while she was going through the online course material, to discuss issues that arise.

There are many millions of people out there that have had to deal with drugs and alcohol. Trying to stay clean for people with addictive behavior is almost a full time job. In these cases, it's often a great idea if the person can be part of classes and training from home or online to help maintain their sobriety. Online Alcohol and Drug Classes allow a person who is struggling with drugs to continue to hold down a job and be a productive member of society while still  holding back the flood gates and staying sober. Everyday is a battle for people who have an addiction. If someone is truly trying to change their lives, taking a drug class online is a good source of ongoing education and support.  Many states and individual jurisdictions will accept them to fulfill court orders because they save the offender time and money and save the city from having to hire the manpower to conduct the courses.  Be sure to check with your legal system to make sure they will accept distance learning classes.  Tell them you will have a Certificate of Completion to prove you've taken the class. If they do accept it, you will be entirely satisfied with the quality and convenience.

When my son's guidance counselor called and requested a meeting with my husband and myself, I knew something bad had happened. He told me that our son was okay, but he did need to speak with us that day if possible. When we got to the school, we found out that drugs had been found on our son. They believed his story that they were not his, and he cooperated with them fully about who they belonged to. Both boys were good kids who just happened to make a really stupid mistake, and the school thankfully recognized this. They wanted both of them to be punished, but they didn't want them to have their college choices be at risk because of a negative mark. The school agreed that if both boys took Minor in Possession Classes, then they would not be written up for this as part of their permanent record. They were very happy to comply with this, and I think a valuable lesson has been learned.

It used to be back in the day when you got pulled over for drinking and driving or under the influence of another drug, you simply had to pay a fine and in more extreme cases sit in jail for awhile. Well, those two options for punishment regarding drugs or alcohol are still used today but, the additional requirement of taking a drug and alcohol class to learn how to stop the behavior is now required.  Alcohol and drug class is used to help offenders actually learn something from the experience. They teach about the dangers and negative effects that drugs and alcohol can do to you but also to your family. These classes also tell you how and where to seek help if needed and the resources to stay sober. Most of these type of classes are offered in your community but you can also find high quality alcohol drug classes online.
