Analyze the flyer produced and distributed by the Youth Alcohol Council (YAC). THEN Prepare a written statement claiming that the YAC flyer was made to tell teens not to drink, but the Y.A.C worded the flyer in the wrong way to make it seem bad to adults
{the flyer]
Johnny wanted a thrill. So he went on a drinking binge with his friends. They were all
under the legal drinking age, but that didn't stop them. There were plenty of
opportunities to get alcohol illegally. They knew that you just have to be determined... and a bit creative.
Johnny and his friends partied long and hard. They drank themselves sick, and even
then didn't have the good since to stop. One by one, Johnny and his friends reaped the
consequences of their reckless, irresponsible behavior. Paul tried to drive home from
the party—he paralyzed himself, but not before he killed two innocent people in the
process. Marilyn drank until she passed out at a party and was taken advantage of by
several young men she had considered her friends. That night, Marilyn learned that
alcohol can turn friends into enemies—and predators. Johnny continued drinking into
his forties, when he was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver. Soon his days--drinking
and otherwise--were numbered.
Johnny and his crew drank and drank and drank . . . until they literally drank their lives
away.
Learn a lesson from Johnny.
Think. Don't Drink!
