What contribution did the Artic Monkeys provide at the Brit Awards for the problem of teenage binge drinking ?

Vic Reeves was drinking, the Artic Monkeys brought their drinks on stage with them, Sharon Osbourne was screeching at Vic,"piss off your pissed" and the Brit Awards was beginning to look as organised as a tossed salad!
And meanwhile back in the real world everyone wants to know why our teenagers are binge drinking, beating the crap out of each other and lying in puddle's of vomit in the streets? Any clues' anybody?

I have to write an essay about teenage drunk driving. Why its a problem and whats a good solution.
Whats a good thesis?

The problem is that it can put innocent people at risk for their lives and the quality of their lives including the driver. There should be a designated driver who does Not drink at all while out at a party or club and is sober and competent to drive to the proper destination.

Teenage drinking has become a problem in our society why?

Explain like 4 reasons

Teenage Drinking has been a problem since the begining of the production of alcholic beverages.

It is considered a rite of passage to consume alcohol. Our social mores consider "drinking" a rite of passage. Peer pressure, media, and the acceptance sitgma that it's OK to Drink are all around us.

The problem will only be solved with Education, and a society that frounds upon the problem. A control over the Media and advertisment will also be needed. Much Like the ban on smoking, a campaign is needed to reach this eventual goal. Smoking negative media, and the ban on certain advertisement had reduced some of the smoking is cool attitude. The same needs to be applied to the alcohol industry. Or are all the cool Ads from the Superbowl, budweiser etc, continue to influence our social attitudes toward drinking in general?

Has anyone out there delt with a teenage childs drink and drug problem?

My son is drinking and we just found somthing in his backpack we think is weed. has onyonr had the same problems with their teenager?

How old is your son? im just curious. I will tell you my answer on this coming from once being a teenager who used drugs.You need to be strict but loving. You need to be there constantly or as much as you can. Talk to him! talk to him! talk to him! Spend as much time with him as you can. Talk to him and ask him why does he use drugs. What makes him turn to them. I would also get him into some counseling and rehab. If he gets difficult with you or refuses then call the police. This may seem harsh but believe me its what needs to be done. If my parents would of been more strict I might not have gone down the long road that I went on for 10 years to battle meth. Its still a daily battle. If my son's ever begin on that road I am going to be strict and harsh. WHY??Because we love our kids.Good luck to you. I hope things work out ok!!
