Teen Alcohol Abuse: What Every Parent Should Know
Does your teenager have a drinking problem? More importantly, would you know if the answer was yes? Meet smart, sensible Traci, who was drinking in the basement of her home one night while her parents were asleep upstairs. She was drunk, and she got into a car driven by a kid she was drinking with. They crashed – and her life, and her parents' lives, have never been the same. And then there's Koren, who went from innocent 14-year-old to blacked-out sorority girl, and wrote a memoir about her 10 years of teenage binge drinking. Join Koren, along with Traci and her parents, two leading alcohol experts and our host Dr. Winnie King, on this special episode of "Keeping Kids Healthy". See these families' stories as they lived them, and learn how to prevent YOUR kids – and yourself! – from making the same mistakes. Find out about the new drinks on the market that are targeting young girls, about the dramatic increase in binge drinking among those girls, and about the serious lifelong damage that teen alcohol abuse can cause. Above all, learn what to do. Most parents don't realize when their teens have a drinking problem, and they don't know how to prevent or treat it. Be the exception: find out what you can do to keep your child safe.
