You know, there's nothing that annoys me more than underage drinking. There is an age limit for a reason. That reason is strictly because your brain hasn't fully developed yet. Therefore, consuming alcohol can interfere with brain activity along with growth. Here's some things I learned on my quest to try to prevent underage drinking:
You are more likely to experience--
1. School problems (failing grades, more absences), social problems (fights) legal issues (arrests), and physical problems (illnesses, hangovers).
2. Unwanted, unplanned, and unprotected sex
3. Disruption of normal growth
4. Physical and sexual assault
5. Higher risk of suicide and homicide
6. Injuries! (car related, fights, etc.)
7. Memory problems
8. Abuse of other drugs
9. Changes in branin development that may have life-long effects
10. DEATH
I am NOT a fan of drinkers period. Whether you're drinking at the legal age or not, it can create binge drinking, alcoholism, poisoning, unwanted behavior, dangerous outbursts, and sooo much more. Doesn't sound too fun right?
