Many alcoholics choose to believe that their drinking does not hurt other people. The truth is that alcoholism creates negative effects to everyone around the person with the drinking problem, especially those people who are close to the alcoholic.
Adequate supervision and clear communication by parents about the negative effects of alcohol and about parental expectations regarding alcohol and other drug use can significantly decrease alcohol use in teens.
A recent World Health Organization (WHO) report has stated that drinking causes at least 1.8 million deaths a year, or almost five percent of all worldwide deaths. "Public-health problems that are commonly associated with alcohol consumption have reached alarming proportions and alcohol has become one of the most important risks to health globally," the report boldly stated.
Many people that are admitted to treatment centers for a drug addiction are actually alcoholics that combine other drugs with their liquor.
