Teenage drinking abuse begins with the first glass

Teenage drinking abuseModern troublesome lifestyle requires for more actions from the parents to feed their child. And “it” uses this coin not for the food or book for a child but for an alcohol. The parents running after better life don’t notice the first glass, nor systematic gatherings of their children with the peers. And the first call, that the child has become drunk and is here, comes from law enforcement agency or drug therapist. More often – is from educational institution. But in any of these cases – this is a late new.

The first glass in the young hands – is a teenage drinking abuse: it is time to switch on the signal of a danger. It is not a hyperbole or horror story. Because it is not far the changes in mind, teen’s behavior, his attitudes to learning, parents and surrounding upon the whole.

The fact is that the teenage drinking abuse has greater complications, than alcoholism in adult’s organism. During the transition 14-15 years old the terrifying picture of alcoholism of the second or even third stage can appear. This is a frontier of alcoholic encephalopathy, of the brain toxic defeat, with what you have to live whole leftover life. During the early years even a few amount of alcohol can leave wounds, which will not ever heal over.

According to the specialists researches, fourths for fives alcoholics acquired the habit being the teens.

It is not always need to do as your father do

The habit to train a baby like you do remains in a child’s brain for a long time. Having become a teen, he doesn’t need such prompts; he used to copy the parent’s habits without their prompts. The beginning of the family holidays, especially with friends or neighbors, begins with the glass for “the good start”. The first toast is should be drunk standing, the next glasses – are without toasts and so on. Tipsy company doesn’t bother themselves in eloquence and drink without counting and wassails. A child looks at the “family traditions”, perceives them as drinking traditions and takes them to their peers’ company. The goal of friends meetings, holiday’s celebration is one think – to get drunk. And if parents and their surroundings begin to join their child to “adult life”, and allow tasting the first 100 grams, the propaganda work on transition to the alcoholic way can be considered as complete. No one mother’s cautions and arrangements with a father “to drink only in my absence” don’t work no more: alcohol has attracted the attention by the novelty. And bitter drink acquires a taste of a forbidden fruit, which is as usual, but sweet.

On the basis of these observations are determined the number of factors teenage drinking abuse:

  • personal example of parents during the family celebrations and perception a holiday by the teenager as gatherings around the bottle:
    • unimpeded access of teenager to alcoholic drinks, alcohol commercials, including bright design of bottles and packing;
    • imitation to adults or the idols, to drink as much as your heart desires and not necessarily with a snack, if only as in a movie – the lemon for the whole evening. But it is impossible to do as in a movie by the different reasons;
    • the lack of experience and limited intelligence because of the neglecting to read engenders the absence of fear · for alcohol and for increased commitment to bravado for the peers;
    • the lack of attention to the own child or his overprotection;
    • adolescence conformism: those who refuses to drink “together with everybody” is perceived as white crow, everybody begins to “peck” him and everything ends by “the expulsion from the pack”.

    The practice and researches of drug specialists have determined two types of teenage alcohol abuse reasons:

    • individual personality deviations and his mental health are referred o the first type. He cultivates them in himself in search of forms to express him and use them as help for fun and to cheer up. The period of psychological and hormonal conversions in organism – is fine condition for manifestation of latent diseases. And congenital malformations get kindly soil for active progression.

    The lack of parent’s attention can face about abnormalities in the child’s behavior, provoked by the abnormalities in the central nervous system work.

    • The second type of reasons absorbs the specific properties of the teen’s behavior, closed into areas of inability to confront the external negative impacts. Recently more and more parents are proud that their children are higher intelligence; understand modern technologies and so on. It is true. But on the other hand, their emotional displays became more infantile. On the external perception of adulthood the children’s habits become reserved: emotionality, easiness to understand the negative features in strangers’ behavior, self-limited of awn actions and their consequences and so on.

    The complex of all constituents in behavior of maturing child has its own continuation. At first, children fool with beer to the sounds of favorite music at the friends’ flat. Then the meeting place is transferred into bars and pubs and later to street and communication with friends ends late in the evening.

    Fatigue, imaginary euphoria of successfully spends day take time for reading the books or tutorials: the half of teenagers, who drinks don’t touch to knowledge and intelligence at all. Medical examinations of high school pupils disquiet: the quantity of alcoholics up to 16 years of age raises and raises every year. It means that modern guys and girls begin to drink in age of 13-14 years old. The doctors affirm it unequivocally, because it is necessary two-three years of active drinking for development of children or teenage alcohol drinking abuse.

    Dear Parents, pay attention at this.
