Alcohol is the most widely used substance among America’s youth and can cause them enormous health and safety risks. Underage drinking is dangerous because:
- It can cause death and/or injury
- Impairs judgment
- Increases risk of assault
- Can lead to alcohol problems later in life
- Interferes with brain development
Kids are influenced by so many of their surroundings - friends, teachers, celebrities, pop culture - yet parents are the leading influence on their kids’ decisions to drink - or not to drink alcohol. Talk to your children early and often about the dangers of underage drinking - they’ll listen.
Notes are being sent home today about Mrs. Voeller's annual Pumpkin Contest in the MES Library. I just wanted to give you a "heads-up!"
