Your family has a tradition on holidays to gather for a common delicious dinner and drink? Pay attention to how your child perceives drinking at home. Does he see you upset with a glass, a bottle of beer, a glass of wine “to relax/calm down”? Did he see relatives in an indecent state? And how did others react to it - with laughter or censure?
All elements of your behavior become patterns for the child - actions " Of course, no one specifically instills a love for alcohol in a child, but after feasts, “invigorating” drinks begin to evoke associations with a holiday and a good mood.. After sad scenes - with a way to solve problems and find peace. The child will always copy the behavior of adults, how he will relate to alcohol depends only on you, as the Internet edition for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old Pannochka reports.. net Children and teenagers are very suggestible, when they start spending more time outside the home, when they have new authorities, they start to copy them. They try to be like their peers. And not every teenager will refuse to drink, watching how after beer friends become bold and cheerful, seem older and more significant..
Childhood alcoholism is not a myth.
Prevention of alcoholism is a mandatory measure that starts with the family. A teenager who consumes alcohol deteriorates mental activity, health, his character changes, he becomes aggressive and rude, many destructive processes in the body are irreversible.
Whether or not to pour the first wine or beer to the child at home at the table, guided by the principle familiar to our society “better at home than in the alley”, is up to you. But don't think twice before choosing what to do..
Consider heredity, the perception of alcohol that the child has already developed, your personal attitude to alcohol, which you willy-nilly has already imposed on the child anyway.
Someone from the age of 15-16 pours 30 grams of wine during the holiday, explaining the origin, production process, a bouquet of aromas and brings up good taste, someone pours beer on Fridays and does not consider it an alcoholic drink. At the same time, an alcoholic can grow up from the first example, and the second one will not like to drink at all.
Everything is individual. be careful.
First of all to yourself.
Children's alcoholism is very dangerous. No need to sound the alarm and interrogate the child if something is suspected. This disease is treated. It is necessary to contact a psychotherapist who will develop an individual treatment program and solve the problem once and for all.
Do not engage in amateur performances, do not “knock out nonsense”, do not turn your own continuation against yourself. Contact a professional.
