Answer 2

i am just going to be right blunt on this...death...losing your license...losing your friends, family...

Answer 3

I knew a guy yrs. ago who wasn't quite right in the head.A good friend of mine  and me were talking about him (not in a bad way) and he said"you know, he used to be normal like me and you".I said what?Really?What happened?He said the guy went out drinking with his friends yrs earlier and thwey were all drunk and they wrecked.They weren't found until the next day, but all of the others in the car died.This guy woke up to find his best friend's had had been cut off in the accident and was laying in his lap.

Another guy I knew, drank and partied with his friends.Someone dared him or he bragged he could drink a 5th of vodak straight down.He did and  it killed him almost instantly.

Then the alocholics I have know in their 40's -60's lost all they had,good jobs, homes money cars wives children.None of them planned to become an alcoholic.The ones I knew who have died either died burning to death or the alcohol did them in.

My older sister hasd miscarried twice then gave birth to a baby who was born prematurely.They had to do open heart surgery on him.Later after he was a little over a yr old,his mom(my sister) and his dad(my brother in law)were on their way to the baby sitters to get him after work onenight when a drunk driver hit them head on and everyone in the wreck died.He grew up never knowing his parents.

No one grows up desiring to be an alcoholic.Most do not realize they are an alcoholic until AFTER it is too late, so when you (or ANYONE)take(s) that first drink  ,you(or they) RISK becoming an alcoholic.When you have alcohol in society you also get alcoholism for some,drunk drivers and all the misery that goes with drinking.The misery far  out weighs the fun of drinking as a whole on society and it is a PACKAGE DEAL.With alcohol you get alcoholism,broken homes, rape murder etc which are blamed on "being drunk" and many deaths and tragedies.You do NOT get one without the other, you do NOT get alcohol WITHOUT these other things.

Answer 4

Liver damage?

Answer 5

having to urinate frequently

Answer 6

Well the one that everyone knows of is getting drunk and then going out driving. And it is illegal to be underage and drinking.

Answer 7

The main consequence of drinking and driving would have to be death. You also have to take into account the possibility of going into a coma, taking an innocent life, and the stress and pain that family members go through trying to cope with the death of a loved one in the event of an accident . The list really goes on, but those are some of the worst I could think of.

Answer 8

dont listen to these overly serious people.  thers a point in everyones life where drinking is actually fun, since it involves risk. risk is what fuels fun at an early age. there also comes a time when alcohol no longer is fun since it involves no risk and just leads to a headache and empty wallet ( for example, patron every weekend) untill this time, drink, enjoy, have fun, best way to meet people, and the more you drink the more you will be responsible with it.  even the kids that are straight edge, never drink before college, end up drinking and looking like immature idiots sooner or later.

Answer 9

bad health love

Answer 10

The thing most teenagers will think of is money loss because of being caught drinking by the cops or such which is something that could happen but one of the minor things. If the person drives even if they are normally a good driver you're drunk of course you're not going to drive the same way! You could crash into something and hurt yourself or someone else (and it does happen even if you don't think it could happen to you or someone close to you if you want ask my cousin that killed a man when she drove drunk at fifteen). Another cause is addiction. Even if someone doesn't think they'll become addicted they can and it can ruin someone's life. Spending money and being drunk all the time and poisoning your body. Alchol poisoning itself can kill you the first Time you go out and get drunk if you drink too much one night or something.  Lots of bad consequences out of getting drunk. My suggestion to anyone who wants to is simply don't.

Answer 11

young people that go out and get involved with underage drinking are harming themselves and its more likely they will be come addicted to alcohol or get involved in drugs or other things

Answer 12

fun.

teenagers dont give a **** about consequences.

drinking is fun and thats all i care about.

most people used to drink when they were teens, and they are fine.

people need to get over it and get on with own lives without trying to ruin everyone elses fun along the way.

safe.

Answer 13

there are none ive found so far

Answer 14

Hey, I did this as a teenager, and I'm not an alcoholic!

I really think it depends on the head you have on your shoulders. I realise that, yes, I did binge drink as a teenager, and perhaps more than others my age, but I got over it in my 20's and now look back at it as my young and stupid days. I even had alcohol poisoning once, and it's definitely not something I would recommend.

I don't recommend it, it's a great way to waste time and waste your life, and if there's something you want to do or a place you want to be, your time is better spent getting there, then having a little celebrate once you do!

I didn't know what I wanted to do or be when I was a teenager, and I think that's why I went out drinking a lot. In my 20's I started to know myself a bit better and knew what kind of person I wanted to be. This kind of drinking is also very draining, and most people find that they cannot keep it up for long, as they wont always have the energy of a teenager.

Having said all that, I know people who DO have a drinking problem, who started as teenagers. I think it comes down to the person you are and the direction you want to take.

Answer 15

well im a teenager (that drinks every now and then ) >_>

umm well they`ve told me i would either end up being and alchoholic, miserable life, no job, and  or jail ;o

Answer 16

most likely to be come alcoholics in the future.

Answer 17

Drinking and driving, deadly car accidents, alcohol poisoning, teenage pregnancy, having regretable s*x, catching stds, liver damage, getting arrested, going to boot camp, being on probation, having your drivers license taken away by the courts.

I drank underaged and I can't believe some of the things I did and lived through.  Thanks to the grace of God I did.

Answer 18

Not planning for the future will turn into a road to destruction. When you do not realize that today is what makes your tomorrow, you may not snap out of it until your 35 with 4 kids, in a low income neighborhood, just getting by. While the ones who spent their time a little more wisely are your family physician or your lawyer.

Answer 19

we are cool people  us underage drinkers.

Answer 20

It all comes down to your ability to handle alcohol. Drinking itself obviously doesn't lead DIRECTLY to car crashes, rape, or anything else most people have said here. People who drink more than they can handle, to the point where they are unable to make informed decisions cause those sort of things.

Pretty much most teens at some point in their lives are going to have a drink or binge drink, so all I can say is be careful, dont drink more than you can handle, and no matter where you're drinking at make sure you have a designated driver so that you're not only keeping yourself out of trouble, but you're taking into consideration OTHER peoples safety too.

Just drink in moderation if you're going to do it.
