alcohol and drug abuse.

Great article. I think this will help to train and education of supervisors in substance abuse counseling. The methods of supervisory contracting, observation, case presentation, modeling, intervention, and evaluation of alcohol and drug abuse.

I have heard that alcohol is not a good thing to have and it is harmful for our health. My parents told me not to take any type of alcohol. They have also told me about the people who have suffered from it.

Alcohol is not bad at all especially red wine (visit pureandhealthy.com to know more), we just have to educate drinkers so they'll know the proper amount and when to say enough is enough to avoid addiction.

There are centers called rehabs which help the individual to get himself out of the addiction activities. If one goes earlier to these centers their life can be saved from being spoiled.

Bing drinking has become an extremely huge problem among teens and young adults in the UK. We will all agree that alcohol consumption leads to many health problems. I do feel that parents and schools needs to drum in the negative effects of alcohol usage to children.
