A recent study by Columbia's National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA), found that America has an epidemic of underage drinking. Many children begin drinking as early as middle school and by the time they graduate from high school, as many as 80% have tried alcohol. Alcohol is a poison to many cells in our bodies, particularly in the brain, heart, and liver. Parents must get involved in their children's lives by asking tough questions and discussing tough topics such as self-esteem and self worth, finding healthy ways to express themselves, etc.
