An Impulsive High School Student Exhibits A Number Of Alcohol-Related Difficulties, Gets Removed From School, And Has To See The School Therapist

Stephen was a fifteen year old high school sophomore who was displaying more than a few alcohol-related difficulties at school. For that reason, the principal told him that he had to see Miss Pender, the school counselor, before he would be permitted to return to school.

Later that day when Stephen went home after school, he had to explain his school situation to his parents. His Mother and Father were "fairly conservative" and informed Stephen that getting discharged from school was not a feasible educational option. They told Stephen that failing to graduate from high school would more likely than not be like a lead weight around his feet that could quite possibly inhibit his educational aspirations for the remainder of his life. What is more, Stephen's Mother and Father were quite let down that he was drinking in the first place and drinking with his buddies in the second.

It was obvious that his parents were 100% in agreement with Stephen's principal and informed Stephen that he had better come to the realization that he needs to see Miss Pender, the school counselor. After his dialogue with his parents, Stephen finally agreed to see Miss Pender the next school day. So Stephen called the school and scheduled an appointment to see Miss Pender the next morning.

When Stephen got to his scheduled appointment with Miss Pender, she instantaneously examined all of the alcohol-related issues Stephen had experienced and asked him if he understood why his recent alcohol-related behavior gave the school administrators room for alarm.

Quite frankly, Stephen was unsure why the principal suggested that he see a school psychologist. As he stated to Miss Pender, why should he see a professional psychologist about his drinking circumstances? Due to the fact that almost all of his buddies drink as much if not more than he does, in essence, drinking is no big thing. Stated more directly, if almost everyone is drinking, why is this such a major problem?

In a word, Stephen's involvement with teenage alcohol abuse was beginning to short-circuit his ability to behave like a responsible young man. As verbalized by Miss Pender, "Just because most of your friends drink wine coolers, wine, hard liquor, or beer does not mean that it's the best thing in the world for you."

Luckily, Miss Pender was well equipped for her meeting with Stephen. She showed him reports and research studies she had underlined that outlined various drinking statistics and facts that targeted most people in general. Then she showed Stephen quite a lot of figures and reports that applied particularly to teenagers.

After Miss Pender articulated the aforesaid teenage alcohol and teen alcohol abuse facts and statistics, it was clear that what Miss Pender taught Stephen was a real jolt to him. Why? Because for the first time in his young life, someone not only made the effort to give an explanation of the long term and the short term consequences of alcohol abuse and alcoholism, but she also took the time to authenticate what she was saying with alcoholism and alcohol abuse facts and statistics that related to everyone in general, and mainly to young people.

As a matter of fact, it was almost as if a light went on and Stephen without pause understood why he should not be engaging in excessive and abusive drinking with or without his pals any longer. Stephen thanked Miss Pender for her concern and for the information she discussed and then accepted her reinstatement into school.
