Final proposal

“Proposal”

On these days, there have been many cases of teenagers using alcohol. We can help them to prevent this use.

To prevent alcohol use we have many pictures and multimedia tha can help teenagers to make a good decision.

The family is the model to follow for each teenager, because they are the ones who educate there pupils. The parents have a very important role on this case.

Teenagers drink alcohol mainly because they are in a age of curiosity. There is also another fact that gives access to teenagers to drink alcohol. This fact is that people who sale alcohol, don’t measure the age of the people who by that licor.

Our goals for this proposal is to show people (teenagers) how to prevent alcohol use and that it is there responsibility to have a good life, or a life with alcohol interfering.

There are many possible problems accompanying alcohol, such as the loss of many lives of teenagers and even older people. All these accidents are caused because of the effect of alcohol. This is why we want to evoid unnecessary accidents o even lives, by stirring up our classmates with this topic.

We hope to finally give a message to every person who sees our work. And we hope that every person that will drink, to think it twice before making that decision. And I personally would like it if every SAYS NO TO ALCOHOL.

First of all, I believe that this new law in Chile will help in keeping people safe in the streets. Whether they are walking, riding on a bicycle, or simply if you are a passenger in a car or bus, this law will protect every single one of us. This law is also known as "Zero Tolerance". This means that people who drive will not be allowed to drink alcohol in amounts before the law, or else stricter punishments will be applied to the driver. Groups of friends will now have to choose a driver that should not drink any alcohol each time they go out. The driver always has the biggest responsibility because he is responsible for the lives of all the passengers and anyone in the street.

In my opinion, this law is very necesary for every person, because it helps on keeping us away from harm and evóiding accidents. This is a change of culture. From here onward people will get used to this law, and it will make us think a lot more before driving a car.                        
The streets of our country will be safer and we will evoid unnecesary accidents.

"Alcohol Effects on teenagers"

  How and why are people (teenagers) drinking and abusing of alcohol in such an early age?

Alcohol is the number one abused substance by teenagers in the United States. There are studies by the NIAAA (National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcholism) wich say hat about the half of the 8th graders have at least tried alcohol and one fourth have been drunk.
We can compare these statistics with 10th graders. Wich more than the half have tried alcohol and almost the half have been drunk.
With these statistics we can see that alcohol is widely abused at a very early age. But we can help these people, or the future teenagers, to prevent alcholism.

How does the early use of alcohol impact on teens future?

There have been many studies about the age that teenagers first try alcohol. But there is one study that tells us that people first use alcohol at less than 15 years old. We can  compair this with people who first use alcohol at the age of 21 or older, wich is about a 3 percent. This is a very low number, wich tells us that there is a severe problem in young adults.

Some consequences of teenager alcohol abuse:

Teen alcohol abuse produces many negative consequences that affect a teenagers life.

One of the most frightend facts of alcohol abuse is known as "DRINKING AND DRIVING". Car accidents are the leader in killing people between 15 and 20 years old.

There  are studies from 2004 that say that about 14 percent of drivers involved in big crash accidents were the ages between 15 and 20.

in this same year and same age group, 30 percent of drivers were killed under the effect of alcohol. (Drunk)

Teen alcohol abuse also has another type of consequence that invloves unwanted or unplanned sex.

We can mention other consequences such as: 

• Physical fights
• Homicides
• Suicides
• Toxic poisoning

All these accdents happen through the effect of alcohol, that makes someone do things that a sober would´t do.

In conclusion we can say that education and prevention of alcohol abuse starts at home and has such an important role to keep teenagers out of trouble.
