SOLUTIONS FOR TEEN DRINKING

     The start of alcohol use in adolescence is influenced more by an
adolescent’s environment than by his or her genetics.

  Teens should try to be away of this evil teen drinking.........
             BUT THEY ARE NOT.!.!.!.!
                                                                                                                    Alcohol use by children and adolescents is frequently made possible by adults.
Minors cannot legally obtain alcohol except in special circumstances.
    EVERY ONE OF US HAS THE DUTY TO REDUCE TEEN DRINKING!!!!!!!!!!   


            Everyone needs to work together to change the
culture around underage drinking.
 

For youth themselves, prevention means
understanding the dangers of alcohol use,
changing how they think about drinking,
and obeying the laws against consumption.
 

For educators, prevention means being aware of
how school and other social systems—families,
students’ peers, the larger community, the media,
among others—can affect students’ risks for underage drinking.                                                                                  It means taking
action in a developmentally sensitive way to help students navigate the challenges of adolescence in positive ways, including rejecting underage alcohol consumption.
 

"It’s time to stop accepting teen drinking as a rite of passage
and to understand the threat it poses to healthy development.

It’s time to replace an environment that all too often enables
underage alcohol use with an environment that discourages it."
