Parents that Host truly Lose the Most!

For some strange reason, in a town near you, there are individuals who think it is okay to serve alcohol to teens at their teenager's graduation party/open house. I have heard all the explanations in order to defend their decision. I have heard, "at least I know where he/she is" to "you only live once" and the best one is "he/she is young, let them have some fun." I am still scratching my head on that one. Underage drinking is a growing problem that really needs to be taken seriously instead of being viewed as a rites of passage into adulthood.

I know it is not my job to tell parents how to raise their children; so I will just point out one important fact to think about. Serving to underage drinkers(teens) is against the Law!

Words of Wisdom: There was a story about a Notre Dame football recruit(17 year old) that fell to his death after drinking with his family during spring break. He had a promising career and future ahead of him. Look no further to this tragedy to realize the affects of alcohol on underage teens. Lets abide by the law. We will save lives.
