Teens and alcohol

<p>I dont drink… well lets say ive never been drunk. I have drank before but i dont see the point in it. My ex bf partied and got caught… on probation for a year and he still drinks… i personally dont want to be with a partier. I have many other things to worry about and look forward to.</p>

<p>I drink but I always am very responsible about it. I think that responsibility is the key. I only drink if I’m with friends that I trust, who will stop me before I get wasted and I usually only drink in moderation. Tonight was our Passover seder, so everybody HAD to drink at least 4-5 glasses of wine, but that was diffrent because my parents were there. I don’t see anything wrong with drinking as long as your responsible about it.</p>

<p>thats true!..</p>

<p>Thanks to everyone who took the time to read and respond to this thread. I found it informative and insightful.</p>

<p>pbi - i don’t do drugs or alcohol. i love partying, but i always have so much fun sober, because i’ve grown to be comfortable with myself, that i’ve never wanted to try them. And I’m not a naturally happy, confident person - i’ve been in counseling for 6 years etc. My brother is in rehab right now, so i’ve been through the pain and don’t want to again. Of course i’m not telling anyone what to do. this is just me.</p>

<p>Hey you’re not alone. I don’t engage in those activities either. There are plenty of ways to have just as much fun safely and legally.</p>

<p>yeah right</p>
