Underage Drinking

Underage drinking has taken its tolls on all the teenagers today, including the ones under the age of 21. It's been affecting the minds of all young people for years to come. I'm told that drinking too much alcoholic beverages, including vodka, can not just mess up their brains, but will have lest them hungover for at least two days. What I really don't like about underage drinking is when these teens are trying to put their own lives and the lives of others. The parents should've been informed that there was going to be a lot of underage drinking at all unsupervised parties. Everybody knows that all underage kids, including the ones who are currently attending middle school, really shouldn't be drinking alcoholic beverages, let alone beer, and they really shouldn't be using fake I.D.s to buy liquor at any store possible. Those store clerks should also know that should they sell alcoholic beverages to minors that they could be fined $500 and/or spend some time behind bars. there's no way that these kids are going to be drinking a lot of drinks, filled with alcohol. They're better off spending Saturday nights at the movies, at restaurants, or with their parents. If these underage kids keep drinking all alcoholic beverages behind the backs of their mothers and fathers, then they'll die of alcohol poisoning. Now I know why I never drank any alcoholic beverages, let alone margaritas or wine. Now I also know why I'd never gone to any of those unsupervised parties, filled with underage drinking. I'd rather keep a clear mind than having a hungover head after drinking to many drinks. That's why all parents should get involved in the lives of their would-be teenagers and talk to them about underage drinking. And if this keeps up and all teenagers keep drinking alcoholic beverages, including whiskey, then all of their parents will be in for a rude awakening.
