“Perhaps I’ll be in the minority here, but I think this a tragic incident. Those women will likely never forgive themselves.”
I can’t imagine forcing a child to drink half a bottle of Whiskey. If they thought it would teach her a lesson, another sip would have suffice. This was out and out cruelty unless they are extremely low IQ.
I think a lot of people don’t realize how alcohol is poison. (And I drink a half bottle of wine nightly). My dad told me a story of a guy he knew who when younger who sat at a bar and quietly just drank and drank and drank and then. . .simply died. Also the danger of “21 shots on the 21st birthday”—I think that happens.
There are health classes in high schools—the danger of death from drinking should be taught.
Well ... yes. What you said.
