Teen's alcohol problems.

Now a days teen drinking becomes a big problem. It’s now under control. More than 8 percent of eighth graders, 16 percent of sophomores, and 24 percent of seniors report recent binge drinking. Many of them are dying for drinking alcohol. Recently one girl named Takeima who lives with her mother and step-father. She is only 14th years old. She finished her middle school and she was going to a high school. One night her three friends invite her for staying night. On there she drank some alcohol. That night she lost her consciousness. And in the morning people find her dead. After that when people asked her friend about last night. They said some of their friend mixed some vodka on her drinks and then she heavily drunk. Among of her friends said, it’s natural to drink in this age. We did party and drinks. They also said, but we take our water or soda for safety, then nobody can tricks on us.
Among teenagers between the ages of 12 and 17 who say they drink heavily; 77 percent had at least one serious problem related to drinking in the past year; 63 percent had built up tolerance to the effects of alcohol; 20 percent reported psychological problems related to their drinking; 12 percent reported health problems related to their drinking.
Teenagers who drink heavily are more likely to cut class or skip school, perform poorly in school, take sexual risks, and commit suicide. Heavy drinking increases the likelihood of delinquent and violent behavior including running away from home, fighting, vandalizing property, stealing and getting arrested.
According to this I want to say for parents, if you noticed some problems going on with your kids please do not try to control them. Try to discuss problems with them and try to calmly solve it.
