Title: Living With Your Teen: Alcohol and Drug Use
Summary: Today’s teens hear mixed messages about drinking alcohol and using
other drugs. One minute they hear the simple message, “Just say NO!”
or they hear “Don’t Drink and Drive.” Television commercials,
magazine ads, and billboards have a different message. These suggest
that drinking is “fun,” “sexy,” “romantic,” “adult,” or “macho.” On top of this, teens know adults who use alcohol or pills to relax, to get rid of stress, or to socialize.
