Never - Ever.
I have seen what it can do.
Has done....and before I hear someone say''Oh you can tell them in moderation''..That is not what the goal should be here.
'Why' anyone would want to do this introduction, is a significant lack in judgement.
Young people need Education first and foremost.
Alcohol causes death when they drink and drive.
I remember one young man, had a few drinks, got on his motor bike...he was just 21 that day.
Hit a Pole.
The fire brigade washed him away, we only had his legs left on the ground.
I was there for support at the time, people were in shock and young children who saw it happen, were devastated & crying.
If what I am saying in this will cause 1 parent to re-think, and deter their young teens from drinking....then that is all we need.
Educate them, and the Police will tell you that your a great Parent, just for that one lesson.
I have had this month to make a phone call to the Police, to ask if it was my son killed in an accident...as my son is a heavy drinker.
He is 40 now, and while I have not seen him drink or drive at the same time, I have no idea? what he does at times.
His drinking has been a huge issue to us, and we have tried and tried to help him.
The accident happened in my sons little town up north, we saw it on the t.v.
I held my breath, and waited for the Police Officer to ask me my sons name.I waited and waited, and he said No.
It is not you son who was killed.
I think I lost 10 yrs off my life, and can also say this to any parent....You never ever want to have to make that call.
Then I felt so bad for the mother who had lost her son.
Educate them to not want to do alcohol, we did what we thought was right 20 yrs ago, when they were able to legally drink, but people have resources now.
Much better and the Police are more than willing to give advice.
Parents can be a Significant help to prevention.
I am a great believer in 'scare tactics' when it comes to saving lives.
