Three Questions for Parents: |
- Has our family talked about the developing adolescent brain, blackouts, and the damage caused by heavy drinking between ages 13 to 22?
- Has our family talked about aunts, uncles, grandparents and our generational alcohol history?
- Has our family talked about binge drinking and the fact that even one binge experience could cause irreparable brain damage to a teen?
|
Even one "no" answer indicates the need for more talking!

Three Questions for Young People: |
- Are you aware of the severe risks of heavy drinking and its effects on the still-developing adolescent brain (between ages 13-22) and that one binge experience could cause irreparable brain damage?
- Do you know about the disease of alcoholism and the role of heredity in your family?
- Have you thought about your drinking choices and talked about them to your parents or a caring adult?

Even one "no" answer indicates the need for more talking!

The above are questions we wish we had asked sooner. Alcoholism is a family disease. |
|
OUR DRINK talks about how our family has taken on addiction. It discusses information about the way you choose to drink, including information about binge drinking and alcohol consumption that you might find surprising.
OUR DRINK is an excellent place to begin your own discussion about alcohol consumption.
Please consult a professional if you need more guidance. |
