With underage drinking, it is often easier to help youth before they get into the habit of engaging in these behaviors. Imagine you had a friend who was thinking about drinking alcohol. With this in mind, answer the following questions.
1. What would you say to make sure your friend completely understood the consequences involved?
2. What are the short and long-term consequences?
3. What are the physical and social consequences?

1. What would you say to make sure your friend completely understood the consequences involved?

I would tell my friend that they could get in legal trouble as well as put his health and safety at risk when they choose to drink underage.

2. What are the short and long-term consequences?

Some short term consequences are: Unwanted, unintended,

and unprotected sexual activity; physical and sexual

assault, and memory problems.

Some long term consequences are: Academic and/or social problems; physical problems , and illnesses.

3. What are the physical and social consequences?

You barely have control of yourself while under the influence of alcohol so you might say/do something that could ruin your friendships and reputation. You could also suffer from falling whilst under the influence and hitting your head or hurting your body.
