People get addicted to alcohol.But why do they drink it for the first time?
My friends say that it helps them forget all the bad things happening in their life.But when I ask,what are those bad things,they go mute.They are not even 20,and these hypothetical bad things have forced them to drink and take drugs.
People find various reasons to drink,but once they start to drink,their problems multiplies,and they will have all the more reasons to drink about.Its like a chain reaction.Full time alcoholics goes about doing nothing in their life except inventing reasons to drink.
Everything has a limit!!

I don't think anyone FORCES us to do anything. We make our own choices. Maybe thise hypothetical bad things are the bad choices they have made. And they don't want to be realistic and admit that they have made some mistakes. Also, people take their first drink for many reasons. To be cool, peer pressure, curiosity,etc. And some are shy or feel unadequate and think that drinking will help them.

Yes,most of them drink for being cool.But If the parents are drinkers,children find it easier to drink.They will not consider it to be a bad habit.If parents keep liquor at home,then I am sure that the teenagers would consume it,just to get the taste of the thing.

I agree with you. Parents need to be good role models!

I don't think it's bad to have a drink from time to time. It relaxes you and it makes you feel happier than usual. However, people should not exagerate, because drinking too much affects their health. But where is the limit between exageration and just a few drinks?

Agreed,A little liquor will do us no harm.I didn't know that it can make one happy,I might wanna try,:).Drinking too much is bad for health.Its up to the individual to decide whats the limit,everyone is different.Thank you taura2p!!have a nice day.
