Alcohol binge drinking problems and solutions article.

I just got done reading this article that is going to help me with my paper so much it is called "Alcohol binge drinking problems and solutions" The article is mainly college drinking problems as are a lot of articles that come up when i do research but this one was different even though it was mainly about college drinking the information that is on binge drinking is really good and is going to fill my paper. It talks about all these studies that have been done in many different country's and also studies that relate to high school students which is good because that is who i am going to be talking about this issue to. "While a continuing barrage of newspaper articles, TV shows, and special interest group reports claim that binge drinking among young people is a growing epidemic, the actual fact is quite to the contrary. Binge drinking among young people is clearly declining and it has been doing so for many years." (www2.potsdam.edu) that is interesting to me because then they show a graph saying that drinking has declined from 41% to 28% between 1980 and 2003, that's a drop of almost one third! another thing that keeps coming up that is interesting to me is that there are ads for alcohol abuse help on every article i do for drinking and alcoholism, this makes me wonder who else reads these if its someone who is trying to help a family member and there doing research or if alcoholics do research and see these ads, i don't know it just kind of confused me and made me wonder if some of the facts weird twisted to make drinking seem horrible because personally i believe in everything is good in the right amounts, saying that drinking is really okay for you if you do it the right responsible way.  another reason why i like this article is that it doesn't just state that there is an issue but it also gives us way to help against alcohol abuse. which i like that they want people to take action. this article actually had some humor in it some how they were talking about how Americans "binge" drink like they were trying to please members of the Prohibition party and the christian temperance union.
