"Teenagers are drinking an average of 44 bottles of wine or 177 pints of beer a year each, a study suggests."Not a Sunday afternoon goes by, without Facebook being updated with quotes such as...
"I'm never drinking again!"
"Last night got a bit messy"
"OMG found John in a bush at 4am this morning!"
... referring to the night before.
Young people, and even those who are older, seem to do this every weekend. Drinking until the point they can't see anymore. The headlines are full of "Britains Binge Drinking Culture" and shocking statistics following, but nothing ever seems to change?
Alcohol isn't like other drugs, it's so easily accessed, meaning we think we can indulge that little bit more as we're not doing anything wrong.
I believe that this will never change. Enless the government makes alcohol totally illegal (which they won't) there will be people (aka us students) who decide to abuse alcohol as it's freely available to us. It provides us with a good night out and a laugh, but we rarely think of the consequences and just see as it as funny when our friends do something stupid when drunk.
