Is anyone aware that they’re trying to legalize alcohol sales in Indiana on Sunday? Seems that extra day of the week won’t help — just increase availability for teens. I can’t imagine why this would be a good move except to increase sales there.

you could lower the drinking age and raise the age for driving (like reverse ages like it is in Europe)

if caught you could put it on their transcript.

or do what you said. punish them from extra curricular activities in school.

teaching them about it wont stop it
they taught me about alcohol in school and i still started drinking at 14

maybe try not teachng them about it?
people allways go
‘oh our kids are growing up too fast’
‘why do teens think they are adults’
well its because they are taught things that only concern adults

you dont teach kids about bills etc or APR in schools and they dont have a clue about it etc
and they dont care

how many teen pregnancies were there before they started teaching sex ed?
no where near as many

you want to educate teens about adult life but dont want them to go out and do it

hmm
