Be aware that parties, sleepovers, gatherings and other activities for youth in our community are behind held WITHOUT adult supervision (or any supervision), and that alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, other drugs and violence are commonly present.
Be aware that the use of alcohol has many dangerous consequences: loss of inhibitions, suicide, sexual promiscuity, violence, crimes, and DEATH.
Both adults and young people need to know that alcohol is not to be equated with "fun" or "party"; this is a false idea encouraged by the alcohol advertising industry.
Parents need to support each other in hosting drug free activities and encourage young people to attend drug free events.
