These kids need help, and too often, they go without it. Teen drinking often leads to alcohol addiction later in life. That can be prevented with alcohol abuse education and rehab. Lives can literally be saved if the right comprehensive treatment method, such as Narconon, is obtained. Until then, preventing teenage drinking and driving is difficult, at best.
