Segment A: MIXED MESSAGE?
Underage drinkers account for one-fifth of the nation's alcohol consumption. Should parents be penalized when teenagers drink alcohol at home? A Virginia couple was recently sentenced to 27 months in jail for throwing a supervised party for their son's 16th birthday, at which beer was made available. Where do you stand on the issue? Let's talk about it on today's HearSay.
Guests: Attorneys Lisa O'Donnell - Bertini, O'Donnell & Jochens; James Broccoletti - Zoby & Broccoletti; and Steven Emmert - an appellate lawyer in Virginia Beach.
Segment B: EXTREME BEHAVIOR
Partying on college campuses is nothing new, but it's taking a more extreme form, with higher rates of binge drinking and prescription drug abuse, and more negative consequences for students such as arrests and risky sexual behavior. We'll talk about the culture of excessive consumption on college campuses. Guests: Dr. John Fleming, author of “Preventing Addiction: What Parents Must Know to Immunize Their Kids Against Drug and Alcohol Addiction.”; and Carol Falkowski, Director of Research Communications at Hazelden Foundation.
