<p>okay i think it's funny that some teens on here who are very anti-drinking seem to think they know SO MUCH bout it. seriously, how would you know the differnece between pased out and sleeping? honestly, who soberly decides to tke a nap at apartY? i've passed out numerous times nand it's never because i'm tired, you just can't keep your head up and eyes open and everythings spinnign, believe me you're wrong. before i drank i think i thought people were exaggertin when tey passed out but they aren't no one voluntaril wants to be unconscious while everyone else i having fun around them, plus once your're out you may get crap written all over you and all kinds of stuff. </p>
<p>and puking, passing out, being hungover, blacking out are not the norm, thats when you know you went a little voerboard. i've been drunk countless time and only thrown up twice (usually its only if u didnt eat) and blacked out rally bad only once. hangovers are usually preventable if you drink water. i'm not saying there arent select people who CANT stop and get like this ebverytime, but thats the exception not the rule, you cant make conclusions about an entire group of people based on the most out-there people. you probably pass people drinking responsibly all the time on dorms and don't know it because theyre playing it off.</p>
<p>overall kids are smarter today, and i definitely think the more lenient the police or parents the better, because if you know cant drive home and neither can anyone else, lets hope you feel safe calling your parents istead of risking it to avoid getting grounded for curfew (that aplies to high school obviously). </p>
<p>i'm not arguing with any parents at all because you definitely have reason ot be concerned about your kids and its good to teach responsibility and stuff rather than let them get away with antything. it's good to have your moms voice in the back of your head helping you make better decisions.</p>
<p>and about binge drinking, i'm not gonna lie most partiers mindset is whats the point in drinking if im not gonna get drunk? you just gotta know when to stop and it very helpful to have friends who KNOW YOUR LIMITS.</p>
