Britain+and+alcohol

=Teenagers and alcohol =

**it's** **absorbed into the tissue.** [1]


//British television programs are often sent on Norwegian television. Many of ////them are about impossible teenagers who have a lifestyle consisting of shirking school, ////parties, alcohol and // //other drugs. "Brat Camp" is an example of that kind of program; parents ////send their // //teenagers to a camp where they are supposed to learn appreciating more things in ////life ////and // //take responsibility at home and for their own lives. //

When British 16- and 17-year-olds were interviewed, they claimed the average age they started drinking was 13-and-a-half. In Britain are parents allowed to give children alcohol at home from they are five years old. [2] <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Statistics tell us that "British youngsters are 21st out of 25 EU countries on a scale of «child <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">wellbeing»." [3]

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">Are the parents to blame? How is Britain's drinking culture? How has the relation between <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">grown-ups and alcohol, affected young people?

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif; font-size: 120%; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;">My final question is: What is British teenager's attitude to alcohol?
