The problem of young adults drinking alcohol

The problems of drinking alcohol in teenagers occur in many countries around the world and appear for a long time. The issues of drinking alcohol arise both in underage and legal-age teenagers. Many underage teenagers secretly drink alcohol. Some underage teenagers make fake ID cards and tell the bar that they are at the age that they can drink alcohol. They are not concerned that doing this is illegal. They only think that they want to drink alcohol. Some underage teenagers drink alcohol at their home or dormitory secretly. Their parents or guardians do not know that they drink alcohol.

Moreover, they drink alcohol more than the recommended limit so many times. Sometimes, they drink alcohol more than the legal age. On the other hand, legal-age young adults drink alcohol more than the recommended limit many times. They do not care about the consequences of drinking excessive alcohol. They only know that they have the right to drink.

Problems in the body

Problems with having sex

Problems with having sex

Alcohol causes problems with sex in young adults. Drinkers may be assaulted, or they may assault others. After some people girls excessively drink alcohol, some boy assaults them. They cannot resist these boys because they are drunken. Therefore, they are the victims of sex rape.

Sometimes, the intoxicated drinkers may assault others without permission. This is because they do not care about the consequences of their action when they heavily drink alcohol.

So, when they would like to have sex together, they do it immediately. Moreover, some colleges have a culture of drinking alcohol and having sex. Therefore, they think it is expected to have sex after drinking alcohol. However, they do not think about the problems after their action. Thus, issues such as pregnancy occur during the study time.

Car accident

After getting drunk, people cannot control themselves. Moreover, their visuals will be narrower. Therefore, it is easy for the drinkers to have car accidents after drinking heavily. The statistics show that there are many car accidents from people who drink alcohol.

Many adults experience these problems caused by young adults in many generations. However, young adults experience these problems only once. When they confront issues, they may be disabled or pregnant. This causes young adults to be depressed with the situation that occurs to them. Some young adults may think they would not let this situation happen if they had attended the past event. But it is impossible to do that.

Therefore, adults need to educate young adults to drink alcohol responsibly so that they will not have problems like the previous situations. …
