Kids who drink sometimes stop doing things they normally liked to do. They may keep telephone calls and meetings a secret and not want anybody touching their things. They act moody and do not have the same eating and sleeping habits. Parents need to stay involved in their kids life. They should talk to their children about their problems to be aware of any changes.
Parents can be the best protection.
Children who get a lot of love can feel good about themselves. It helps them resist doing bad things even when other kids are doing them. Parents can also help by setting a good example by not drinking and driving. They can have firm rules in the home that everyone follows. Try not to overreact or panic if the child tries alcohol.
