Iceland has largely kicked teen drinking. What can it teach other countries?
- cmurf 9y agoA couple of takeaways: - One of the problems (enabling teenage drinking) is an ambiguous view of the line between child and adulthood, she says; the resistance to call a kid a kid, and treat them as such, and really make it easy for them to pick among fun kid things to do with their time, to keep them interested - the opposite of the D.A.R.E. approach, the Icelandic approach makes the community responsible rather than the individual teen.
