  1. This video really and truly very heart breaking. Can you imagine an eighth grader drinking, to me i think that is quite young. I mean don't get me wrong I know there are many young teens who drink before they are twenty-one but eighth grade? that would mean that she would only be thirteen or fourteen. I know a lot of times kids fall into peer pressure but not in the eighth grade thats way to young. Think about it if she starts drinking in the eighth grade and then five years later when she is eighteen or nineteen, she will be an alcoholic. If a parent is not able to talk to their child about something small like alcohol then how will they be able to talk to their child about sex. And if they don't talk to their child about sex and alcohol they could end up with a very young, immature, and confused pregnant alcoholic teenager. If parents would just talk to their kids and let them know that they will always be there for them no matter what and explain to them the consequences of everything, they really should not have a problem on their hands.
