A lot problems that occur at Home in the Community and in the Street Are brought into the school and end up giving us the problem when we really should have nothing to do with it. In a a Parent myself. I think its the parents responsibility to guide editorial consider your attitude the journal Hopes this series articles has been informative. We also Hope it has caused readers to think about their own drinking habits and attitudes. Today teenagers Are using alcohol in May different kinds situations drinking an occasional Beer Glass wine at the family supper table experimenting by getting High at a teenage party drinking at a bar tavern drinking at a Beer party where there Are Only boys Only girls sipping wine punch at a family Celebration having a mixed drink at a family gathering. How one sizes up each situation depends ones own attitudes towards alcohol attitudes that have been picked up Over the years from family friends local customs advertisements Laws religious teaching. Most important is family attitudes. At the conclusion the series the journal would like to suggest that one considers ones n reactions to the different situations. Also consider ones reactions to the following suggestions offered by experts in the Field alcohol abuse and alcoholism a no drinking should be the Rule for everyone teenagers and adults \ a teenagers can to handle alcohol they should wait until they re 21 to teenagers should learn to handle alcohol the Best place for this is in the a teenagers should learn their own a to drink moderately any Young person can handle one drink. A a adolescence is too late to Start Young children should be allowed sips wine Beer with their parents a a children supervise children and see that they re not doing these things. If they Are doing any these things Are made aware it they should take Steps to make sure they re not doing it again. It is not something that the school alone can handle journal sources seemed to agree that them it it important Factor in dealing with teenage alcohol use is the attitudes the parents. It is generally agreed that it is culturally acceptable to drink and a person who drinks in moderation will generally not develop any problem with drinking. A persons attitude towards drinking is the key attitudes that Are established Long before the person reaches the Legal drinking age. That attitude begins forming from the beginning a child a life.
