 Many
well-meaning parents think that it is enough to take
away car keys at their teen's parties so the teens can't drink &
drive. Parents provide the alcohol or allow alcohol to be consumed
based on the false belief that it's a rite of passage, especially
at prom & graduation parties. THIS COULDN'T BE FARTHER FROM
THE TRUTH.
The "Parents Who Host, Lose The Most: Don't be a party to
teenage drinking" public awareness campaign was developed
by Drug-Free Action Alliance in 2000. Campaign information has been
requested for replication in 40 states & Canada. In 2001, the
campaign received a national award as a promising prevention program.
