Alcohol

Alcohol is a hit with many teens because when they drink it they are usually at parties having fun not thinking about how it can effect themselves. Teens also think its the cool thing to do. Alcohol effects the brain causing difficulty walking, blurred vision, slowed reaction times, slurred speech, and impaired memory. It also effects organs especially the liver which can cause liver disease. Some long term problems that alcohol can cause is that it leads to addiction. It can also cause permanent damage to the brain and liver. People are driven to use drugs and alcohol because they see other people doing it and they want to try it themselves. After trying it they may eventualy get addicted to it. I do not think that alcohol should be banned because if you are a smart drinker and drink responsiblely you won't have any problems with alcohol. The people that do have alcohol problems are the ones that should get help. Thats why I think alcohol should not be banned.
