Went in fairly sceptical, as the opening gambit concerns underage drinking, which as a Brit, I view as a minor peccadillo. But there's something good in there - actually quite a fascinating approach to substance abuse, that a person's approach to stress dictates the appeal of certain drugs. Not mentioned but the appeal of e.g. LSD also falls out of this. I'm not sure it needs to be quite this pathologised though. Unfortunately the article doesn't pay off in the end, and amounts to "open youth centres for kids to stop them drinking", which is remarkably unoriginal.
