Alcohol abuse is responsible for 100,000 deaths in the U.S. each year—-deaths resulting from drunk driving, alcohol poisoning, fetal alcohol syndrome, cirrhosis and even from alcohol-related cancers (esophageal, liver, colon). The program clearly spells out the dangers and the risks of underage drinking while also providing new information on how the adolescent brain can be permanently damaged by alcohol. Underage Drinking also explores the risky trend of binge drinking, which results in thousands of teens being treated in the emergency room each year for alcohol poisoning. There is also a segment on the legal and social dangers of throwing unsupervised parties in which alcohol is served to minors. The video makes it clear that teens should adopt a no-use policy towards this dangerous and addictive drug. Teacher's Resource Book provides compelling lessons and activities on alcohol-related topics such as binge drinking, addiction, alcohol overdose and more. |
