Alcohol – Not All It’s Made Out to Be

The TV commercial shows good-looking, athletic, sexy people, playing on the beach, or in a club. Cavorting with friends. The music plays, and they are so full of fun, so full of life.

Of course, this is how life really is, and if life isn’t like this, then do what they do. Grab a tall drink of (fill in the name of the alcoholic beverage being advertised.) Your life can be like theirs!

Of course the commercials won’t show the ugly side of alcohol- the tragic accidents, the wasted lives, the mistakes made while inebriated that ruin, kill, maim.

“Someone needs to get the message across to kids that a life with alcohol can become a life that is really no fun,” comments Mary Rieser, Executive Director for Narconon Drug Rehab GA. “While there is no lack of communication about the virtues of alcohol, including the example set by adults, there is a dearth of information that contradicts the extolled virtues of drinking.

“Even the reasoning voice of a parent can be droned out by magazine ads and television promoting the youthfulness and fun of alcohol.  No one in these ads looks the least bit compromised by the alcohol – in fact it appears alcohol makes them gorgeous and confident.   No one is stumbling about.

“We need a third party communication that kids will accept that teaches them the real dangers of alcohol.

Narconon drug education is that.  It is interactive and kids like it.  They learn through communication, not being lectured at.

If someone you know is addicted to alcohol, call us.  We have a 76% success rate.

We are Narconon – The New Life Program.
