"Health Concern"

            Once you hit a certain age, people believe they are free to act how ever they feel. You think you are grown and no one can tell you what to do. With all this freedom comes responsibility, but some might not be able to handle it. When people act irresponsibly they don’t only affect themselves but the people around them. Its not difficult for people to acquire alcohol whether you’re a teen or an adult. You can get it anywhere, there aren’t a lot of regulations that come with it. As long as you’re twenty-one years old, you can buy it. There’s a law against minors ingesting it, but this does not mean they don’t drink. No good can come from people drinking, it may become a habit. Once a habit is formed it elevates to an addiction.
          Many people have lost their lives due to drunk driving. A lot of families have been affected, it’s a public health concern. People are slowly destroying their bodies, and they don’t realize its ruining their lives. The people that cant handle that toxic substance in their body get out of control. They become aggressive and start to behave in a manner they usually wouldn’t act, because of the alcohol. The next day they have a hang over and cant recall the events from the previous day. People frown upon drugs and don’t really criticize alcohol, there shouldn’t be such a leniency with it because its legal. Many deaths are caused because of the intake of alcohol. I feel that it’s a public health concern that needs immediate attention.
