Why: Too many children and youth are getting their alcohol from home and convenience stores that sell to minors. We are reminding parents, particularly mothers, that they are the # influence in a child’s life. We are underscoring to parents that their children are watching their use of alcohol and listening to what they say about it. We want to empower parents to know that things like eating dinner as a family 2-3 times per week, staying connected to their children and monitoring alcohol supplies at home are proven strategies to reduce underage drinking. To change social norms and reduce accessibility to alcohol in South Florida, we NEED the media to help us reach parents, mothers, convenience store owners and legislators. Too many of South Florida’s middle and high school students are drinking alcohol. Today, we know more about the impact of alcohol on the developing brain of a child and adolescent. We need to change the social/cultural norm that accepts alcohol consumption by children and youth as a rite of passage.
