[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. He's probably already drinking at the parties.
[b]
2. He's ationalizing how much he can drink before it's a problem for him - if you have any sort of substance abuse problem in your family history thisshould be a big red flag for you.[/b]

3. While you can't  totally control him you really should have a chat with him about what this could mean  in terms of the athletic career,  getting  caught up at the wrong place wrong time etc.

Now for the European problems

1. There is a higher alcoholism/ binge drinking problem among the youth of W. Europe so no you let them drink as teens plan is not fool proof.

2. Your id getting drunk isn't responsible for drinking

3. Getting good grades doesn't mean they don't have an issue with alcohol.

4. Not all teens experiment with alcohol[/quote]

That part.Op. that's what would concern me most.

I would assume he's already tried it.
More than a few sips.

You need to have an in-depth covo with him.

Don't get angry or punish him.[/quote]
