well im 14, and i have a really amazing best friend who is also 14.
Recently he's been going through some hard times with family and stuff and he's turned to drink
it seems to me that every saturday and friday he goes out and gets drunk
i try and tell him its not good for him, and he can have fun without it
but he keeps saying that when hes drinking, nothing matters anymore
i want him to stop becuase it's going to get worse and he'll end up doing something stupid
and now he's asked me to go out with him on saturday and get drunk
myself i dont see the facination in going out every weekend and getting hammered so
i dont know
murrrhhh

Drinking is just a symptom of the emotional chaos at his home. Try and be emotionally supportive and go do something funner than drinking with him that is equally distractive if you wanna be a good friend.

tell him you have this new drink that will get him really wasted.  Then give him bitters (it is a little bottle of spice for drinks), mint, rootbeer and if you have it a touch of peanut flour.  Then tell him it has either PGA in it or burdon but that it tastes like a rootbeer float.

He won't be able to taste the liqour, that is not really in there, and maybe after a while he will figure out he does not need it

he needs help. wont he hang out with you instead of doing that stuff? if not i'd report him to the police when u know he's drunk. it might help and it might not. they wont tell him who turned him. does ur friend know that ur concerned? pm me if u want. all my friends including me have the same problems

i started drinking when i was 11...got really into the party scene my freshman year (i was 13...) and then came the guys...i went through the most basic forms of trying to avoid the problems and in the end, all it did was make me repress the real issues and when i got hit with reality...i lost most of my friends because of it, i closed myself off from my family, i became the slut in the group....no one was there to help me back up in school and in life basically...i got kicked when i was down by the people who partied with me, the people who i thought understood me better than i did....there's gonna come a point in your friend's life that he's gonna reach that breaking point and i just hope you're someone that'll help him back up on his feet...until then just steer him to understand the reality of the situation he's in....
