As a community we have a duty to prove to our youth that alcohol may be enjoyed responsibly, moderately and without the legal and health issues that it can foster when abused.

Do we advertise alcohol to our teens? Do we relay to our friends, in the presence of children, how 'smashed' we were at that last party? Do we over-indulge and expect a different stance from our youth?

Reviewing our own activities, and how we interact with alcohol, can influence how our youth develop their attitudes.
