teenagers and alcohol

[Yorkiegirl]

looking for advice really.
My nephew is 15, and has started drinking quite a lot. He has been drinking with friends of a similar age but also when on his own at home when his mum and dad are out in the evenings. I know he was drunk the other night when I spoke to him.
What can I do to help him? Is there anything I can do?

yorkiegirl, just offer yourself over as someone who he can come and talk too and supportive
he may have relationship/schoolwork or other probs that he may need advice on
hope he is ok

how does he get the money for it? - this is what i would be asking.

but parentline and "frank" may help him parents. or indeed you - if your looking to help.

he drinks the wine my SIL has in the house already as she more than likes a few drinks

well then if she herself is concerned maybe she should cut it out!

You could show him \link{http://www.clitheroetoday.co.uk/ViewArticle2.aspx?SectionID=9&ArticleID=1378420\this}, YG.

The boy concerned was "off his face" (allegedly, from a v reliable source) at a party and took the Land Rover from the drive of the house the party was in.
