Social Realities of Teen Drinking

An estimated 65% of underage drinkers are getting their alcohol from friends or family and some underage drinking parties are actually sponsored by parents who would rather have kids drink at home than out on the street. This issue brings up many questions. Should parents allow teen drinking in the home? What are the social host ordinances in Kentucky? What about the social ramifications for the teens? What are the effects of alcohol on the young adult brain? What methods prove effective to deter underage alcohol consumption? Tune in on Monday for our conversation on the social realities of teen drinking. Because today is an archive edition, we won't be taking calls this hour.
