There's no getting around it. Summer is over. For a lot of people, that means it's time to go BACK TO SCHOOL! Of course, back to school means SALES, but I don't know if these products are appropriate...

from a year ago but it seems this year is keeping up...

1. Sorta depends on what level of school you're going back to,

I guess. The condoms and pregnancy tests are just the thing for your college-bound kids, I'd think. Tell your sons to use the one to prevent other people's daughters from needing the other.

Stock up!

3. and you might meet her father

with the knives and a truckload of the soil

[MineralMan]

4. Yes. That is to be feared, certainly.

Dropping a daughter off at college for her freshman year must be a horror for most dads. I've not had that experience, thank goodness.

6. Four years from now...

Dog help me. High school boys stress me enough

[MineralMan]

9. Ah...I can't help you there, I'm afraid.

It is a time of anxiety and dread, I have no doubt.

Contraceptive implants are something to consider. Kids do stuff, and there's little parents can do, really. I'm afraid that if I had an adolescent daughter, that's a discussion we'd be having, I'm sure. I don't, though, and never will, so there is that.

10. She is smart, we educate her thoroughly, help her have a strong sense of self-worth and esteem

then trust.

*sigh*

[MineralMan]

13. Smart kids with strong senses of self-worth still

often end up being sexually active. It's a natural biological drive, and opportunities abound.

I'm an old guy, but I still remember being a teen. Given enough time and a serious girlfriend or boyfriend, it's almost inevitable, I think. No contraception was available when I was a teen, but that did not prevent sexual activity.

I don't know. It's a real dilemma for parents of teens. I have no good answers, though.

2. Lol @ the complete beer pong essentials.

5. What college are these people going to?

[dixiegrrrrl]

20. Perhaps Victims Univ???

[Initech]

22. South Hastings Institute Of Technology?

[Thomas Hurt]

7. Ah, the vicissitudes of consumerism.........

[dembotoz]

8. having set my kids up in off campus housing the housewares makes perfect sense to me

and i am sure the booze made perfect sense to them

11. How Dare You Object To All These Very Necessary Products!

Oh, You meant the back-to-school signage.

[sarisataka]

14. I do object...

to all that Barcardi and not a coke in sight

[3catwoman3]

12. When I do annual well visits on teenagers, a talk to them...

...very briefly about making decisions that keep them in charge of who they turn out to be, and not turning that important power over to someone else. I've got it down to about 90 seconds, so I don't get tuned out (I hope).

A couple of years ago, one very personable 17 year old young man listened politely, and then said, I can do better than that. I'll tell you what my dad told me." "Go for it," I said.

His dad's advice - "Stay in school, and wrap your tool." Wise words, and memorable in their brevity and humor.

15. Could be any college for students looking at certain career paths:

bartenders course
culinary school
hospitality mgmt
agriculture
public health
law enforcement
human sexuaity

[JimGinPA]

16. Yeah...

[procon]

19. Halloween displays are already up - LOL - mind your blood pressure! nt

[Archae]

21. Heck, the Big Lots near me has Christmas stuff already!

I'm series!!!

[Warpy]

17. The first one makes a lot of sense

Summer is finally over and the "I'm bored, Mom!" bunch is back in school so it's time to PARTY!"

[KatyMan]

18. Jaw dropping!

You won't believe what happened next!

[AwakeAtLast]

23. The rum and vodka are for the teachers.
