Hurkw 6 i i The lbw Mow t's 12:35 p.m. on Friday night. It's been a good evening. The game was great and so was the party afterwards. Unfortunately, the clock says it is 35 minutes past that magical moment - CU RFEW. The race against the clock was lost again. Silently, you sneak in the front door, praying you slip in unnoticed into the bedroom. Silently tiptoeing past the living room the heart sinks to the toesg there sits Dad reading a book waiting up for his child. Curfews are as much a part ofgrowing up as first dates and proms. But are they a necessary evil or good? Or are they even necessary at all? Freshmen students had different ideas about the curfew controversy. Most freshmen report that 9 or I0 p.m, is the cut-off point on weekdays, and II to midnight on weekends. There are many different feelings about these limits. Without curfews, parents would be up all night worrying if their kids were okay, remarked Colleen Dunn. My par- ents are reasonable, so I'd never break my cur- few unless it was an emergency. Curfews are needed for protection and safety, added Amy Brackeen. On the other hand, some teens felt that curfews were unnecessary. Kids should be responsible enough to be home at a reason- able hour without a curfew. If a teen isn't re- sponsible to date at all, commented Clay Adamson, What's the punishment for a curfew crime? Getting grounded, what else-whether that means no phone privileges for a week or soli- tary confinement to the home. Another often mentioned punishment that strikes fear in every teen's heart is an earlier curfew! A few lucky teens say they got off with just a warming, while one or two report that nothing happens. My parents usually just look at me and 'nice of you to drop in finally' and that's about ' reports Terri Sherrill. Other teens say th' while they wouldn't lose any privileges, they'CL lose something more important-their par'e rTl's trust. This is all the incentive they,necd.
