This is an act of saving lives of college going teenagers, who in order to avoid issues in their lives go in wrong direction - sometimes with terrible aftereffects.

"Underage drinking" refers to teenage alcohol use. The human body persist to develop up to the age of 18 and studies recommend that intake of alcohol before turning 18 years old can badly effect cerebrum maturation and lead to other alcohol-related complications. Teenagers have to grow two main parts of brain; these are frontal lobe and hippocampus. These brain parts are important for memory and control of impulse. When a person who is under the age of 18 begins alcohol drinking, there is a serious chance that this development will be retarded. Suppose if development of these very important parts of brain remain partial or there is harm at a young age than what could be the results.

Vulnerability to alcoholic beverages at premature age can cause critical health related problems later in life.  Underage drinking can also cause instant risks to teenagers whose bodies are minor than adults and mostly intolerant to alcohol intake.

Intoxication with alcohol leads to sewer problems. We all have noticed a drunken person undulating, vomiting and doing strange things. Because of adverse effects of excess alcohol intake in the body and brain, the sentiments get hurt. The person:

• Does idiotic acts like excess crying and laughing without any reason
• Loses Dignity
• Create nuisance
• Trouble with other people
• Hurt others

All these happen because of intoxication which makes the drunk person fearless to do all these things.

Some of the FACTS of underage drinking are –

• The survey held in 1960's stated that 7% of girls had alcohol between the age of 10 and 15 first time.
• There were 4% of teenagers said that it's difficult for them to get alcohol.
• It was evaluated that 20 million U.S. grown person abuse alcohol; more than 50% started taking alcohol as teens.
• The studies reported that 33% of 10th graders and 44% of 12th graders confessed that they are taking alcohol.

Here are some new statistics on underage drinking you need to know–

Ø  A teenager can drink in the front of their elders or guardians or parents only if they allow them. That can be anywhere even if its home or taverns. Taverns may decline to give alcohol to minors if they wish.

 

Ø  It is illegal for adults to serve alcohol to teenagers or allow a teenager to drink. Fines for this first wrong doing may be up to $500 per drinker who is underage.

 

Ø  The law reported that you may not obtain, sell or provide alcohol to any teenagers who are not with their parents, so if you want to throw a party or host a get-together where alcohol will be included, invite the parents also. And serve alcohol to only those minors whose parents allow them and make sure their parents remain in the party till the end.
