Parents, if you Love your Kids Choose not to Drink Alcohol

Parents!
If you love your children, choose not to drink alcohol

CHOOSE alcohol FOR HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THEIR CHILDREN DRINK!

A wise choice! A wise decision!

Why a parent who can benefit from drinking alcohol, do not choose to drink?
They know the consequences are tragic for the future of their children if they drink alcohol and follow their children likewise.

Good parents do not encourage, permit or alcohol model that could potentially kill their child. You know, not working a double standard! Telling your child not to drink alcohol when you do not drink! responsible parents are aware that driving under the influence of alcohol, alcoholism, drug use future, a small part of what can happen after a child takes his first drink are. Parents who truly love their children are willing to give up something they can enjoy the health and safety of their children.

I think mothers have a greater responsibility towards their children in this area, as it sets the tone of the house! For responsible parents, it’s no great sacrifice for the choice not to drink alcohol to make.

A study was performed on the brains of young and the conclusion was that the brains of young people do not fully develop until the age of 25 years. Young people need adults in their lives to good examples. They need parents to guide them and help them make good decisions. The sad reality is that many parents are bad examples and by the time a person on the lives of young faces, they follow the same path as their parents.

If the idea of abstention question parents, remember! How would you feel if your child died in an alcoholic stupor, because they only wanted to be like you? If you do not want them to drink alcohol, you should not drink br !!!!!!!
It is a very popular movement today, like the campaign against tobacco, which was very successful. This movement is called “reduction in alcohol consumption among minors.” It is the result of Congress calling for the National Research Council and Institute of Medicine, addressed the evidence about the various programs on alcohol to minors examine and recommend a strategy for reducing and preventing crime.

The conclusion of the study is simple: The consumption of alcohol by young people is dangerous not only because of the risks associated with acute impairment, but also because of the threat to their long-term development and well be

I had recently at a national conference for this movement and was to teach by the enthusiasm and excitement for our children not to drink alcohol until they are 21 years impressed. Organizations gathered in the United States to share their knowledge and successes. Great progress has been made and young people are actually made on the dangers of alcohol.

I am very grateful for everything that has happened and congratulate all participants for their commitment and the desire to save our youth.

Unfortunately, my only complaint is the lack of a message of abstinence in their campaign. They are not loud, young, they have the choice not to drink alcohol, regardless of their age. They are not taught that “abstinence is the best choice!” Are you teach young people not to drink alcohol until they are 21 years old. You have to believe in something magical happens when they reach the age of 21. If they will only choose to drink then there will be no consequences.

Why do I believe abstinence is the better choice?
Once more from the study: 1 / 3 of fatal accidents involving young people from alcohol. Underage drinking is also associated with violence, suicide, school failure and other behavior disorders. Alcohol consumption by young people, the greater the problem: All these problems are exacerbated by early alcohol use among adolescents. In addition, often heavy drinking by young adolescents can lead to minor brain damage. A young person who begins drinking as a young teen is four times more likely to develop alcohol dependence than someone who waits until adulthood on alcohol consumption. Almost 14 million Americans have alcohol abuse or alcoholism develops.

My argument to encourage parents to choose not to drink alcohol is personal, but it is supported by the study. He said that the reasons and consequences of the use youth closely with the entire measurement and consumer behavior in society are related, and by the same factors that influence affected the consumption patterns of adults. From this point of view, it is possible that the most effective way to measure the extent and the negative consequences of youth alcohol would reduce the extent and consequences of reducing the adult. But it is clear that Congress focus for the Committee for Youth consumption, rather than developing a strategy that determines on alcohol consumption among adults. That’s what did the Committee.
The study can be read at www.national-academies.org (underage drinking Reduction)

The study found that the best way to choose our young people not to drink alcohol is to teach adults not to drink alcohol! He worked with the tobacco, and I think it can work with alcohol! Unfortunately this is not the orientation.

Why do I think should not decide the parents drink alcohol?

1. For example, modeling or the best teacher.

2. A double standard does not work.

3. Telling a child they should not drink until she is 21, a temporary solution and are potentially devastating, it teaches that alcohol is allowed. What happens when they become 21, and they choose to drink and eventually destroy their lives anyway? The first drink may be the beginning of alcoholism. Fifty percent of those who may have alcoholics in their family to an alcoholic. It can also lead to a DUI at any age, and committed other violent crimes when people are drunk.

4. Why not teach our children to drink in moderation is a bad choice! Since teaches moderation: “It is permitted to drink alcohol.” There is no security in the moderation of teaching. The only security is in the teaching of abstinence. In addition, if you can save your children from alcohol damage and try not to drink in moderation, you support the alcohol industry by giving them money for their products. You are not allow the “the alcohol industry to continue their mission to money so that they continue to make our children and families? Destroy

There is also another common argument. We think if we drink to children at home, they are to teach responsibility. This may be true in some cases, but in European countries where this has happened, the study shows that these countries are not better off than the U.S. with regard to the negative consequences of youth consumption are suitable. Besides alcohol to minors is a crime, and if your child alcohol you are breaking the law are, promoting drink!

Many churches have taught moderation and are now paying the price. They have problems with alcohol in their communities. Some of them have an anti-drink themselves.

5. As parents we must teach our children and make use of course fully to, gifts and talents they have been lucky with them and encourage them to achieve the goal of their lives and potential. How can they do if they manage to substances whose use temporary life or prevent growth? If they think they need a drink to have fun, confronted with a problem or situation to escape, they will never discover their own abilities. You will never acquire the skills needed to enjoy life. Children need adults who live a full life without seeing the crutch of alcohol. You have to understand that life without good, enjoyable and successful alcohol.

We love our children and we want a healthy lifestyle where they can enjoy their lives. We do everything we can as parents, want to be sure they have the opportunity to live a full life. We want them safe and healthy. **** Good parents set a good example for their children ****
