Being that alcohol is a drug, I would have to say that this “drug” is universally accepted as a rite of passage, social status, and essential to most celebrations. One difference alcohol is considered different from other drugs is that alcohol is advertised almost everywhere sort of shoved down our throat via media. There are fun and catchy commercials that even show dancing emoji’s and it’s scary because emoji’s are very popular with kids and teens. Even Chuck E Cheese’s “Where a Kid can be a Kid” serves alcohol to adults, but one may think there can be some places where a child doesn’t have be exposed to a parent drinking alcohol and just focus on their child and having fun. However, alcohol is seen as so much of a coping mechanism that it’s

Gratefully, my life has not been impacted negatively by alcohol. But after reflecting on my past experiences, alcohol has been involved greatly in my life, although it may not have been negatively. Since I was young, I have remembered observing family members drinking alcohol and pondering if whether their decisions were just. I was raised in an atmosphere, where alcohol was demonstrated as not a harmful thing, but shown as a privileged activity that adults did. Most of my family’s gatherings always had alcohol included, it became a natural occurrence and it seemed abnormal if it was absent. My family doesn’t need alcohol as an item in order to have fun, but we use alcohol as a special luxury to celebrate joyful events. We also don’t indulge

The Every 15 Minutes event this spring has influenced the way I view alcohol. For the longest time I knew that drinking alcohol is damaging for the underage. Seeing my peers in a car accident made me realize how destructive it can be. Drunk driving accidents can happen to anyone and it is a serious matter that can change ones life. It can be my friend, my sister, my cousin or just a student from my school that can be affected or affect the life of others. What I have learned from this experience is that you do not need to drink to have fun. I also learned that alcoholism can be a serious addiction that many families are affected by. Furthermore, not only do alcoholics get into accidents but even the people who just made one mistake can ruin

While consumption of alcohol is a socially acceptable practice in our society, issues arise when abuse occurs. Donatelle and Thompson (2011) define alcohol abuse as the "excessive consumption or a level of consumption that interferes with work, school, or social and family relationships" (256). As with other drug addictions, this abuse is disruptive to the alcohol abusers life as well as to those close to them. Moreover, alcohol abuse is accompanied by many devastating effects for all demographics.

Approximately one in every 12 people either are abusing alcohol, or they are becoming, if not are, victims of alcoholism (National…). Alcohol consumption is especially known in our society’s culture. There are numerous people who like to drink every now and again in moderation; however, there are far too many people who abuse the alcohol and may even be completely dependent on it. Several

Alcohol beverages with varied percentage content are consumed globally during religious, social, cultural events, festivals and other occasions. The use of alcoholic beverages has been an integral part of many cultures for thousands of years (McGovern, 2009).

In American culture especially, drinking is seen as a rite of passage or assimilation into adulthood. Young people in many cultures are introduced to drinking early in life, as a normal part of daily living. Whereas in America, drinking at a young age is looked down upon, the reverse is true in societies that maintain the best moderate drinking practices. The idea of a minimum as before someone should be protected from alcohol is alien in China and France. Children learn to drink early in Zambia by taking small quantities when they are sent to buy beer; children in France, Italy, and Spain are routinely given wine as part of a meal or celebration. In the United States, the legal age to drink varies dramatically form others around the world but is still look upon as a step into adulthood. Though attitudes and behaviors vary in different places, drinking can be seen as a routine way of assimilating a youth into their respective culture’s social customs.

Global population control and environmental policies are the subject of international controversy. The rate at which human beings are populating the earth and polluting it are some of the most important factors that face the global society today. As of March 2009, the world population is about 6.76 billion. With the high rate of population increase, the global population is expected to reach 9 billion by 2040.

Over the past 50 years, the world’s population has more than doubled and more than 1 billion of the world’s people do not have enough food to

However, some circumstances or events that are urgent and may need immediate attention get priority over the meeting. Examples are sickness, accidents, and death. Sometimes, forces of nature such as typhoon or other disasters must receive higher priority, cancelling the jour fixe meeting.

An experience I have had with alcohol was the summer of 2016. My sister and I traveled to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico to celebrate her graduation from the University of Arizona and my graduation from high school. The legal drinking age in Mexico is 18 and Puerto Vallarta is known for their popular nighttime vibe. I experienced getting drunk for the first time that summer. When I try to recall what exactly happened that summer, I cannot put the pieces together to the memories. What I can remember from those nights is how they start, drinking, and then not being able to remember how I would get home. It was my first experience drinking so naturally I was binge drinking and didn’t know my alcohol limits. Looking back I definitely drank more than I
