Dear Ann Landers: I'm a 15-year-
old girl why has something to say
to kids my age
My parents do not allow me, to
go to parties where liquor is served.
My instructions are, "If you see
liquor, come home."
rhrec weeks ago. I was at a party
where thev served wine coolers. I
had never Seen one before and I
asked what was in it. I was told it
was fruit punch and soda. 1 didn't
believe it because they called it "a
wine cooler."
Later in the evening, some of the
kids were acting pretty loud. They
looked drunk to me. I thought
maybe they had brought some
liquor with them because 1 didn’t
see any in the house. Now, after
reading an article in the Washing-
ton Post by Catherine O’Neill, I
know the truth. I'd like to share
this information with other teena-
gers.
The average w jne cooler contains
about 6 percent alcohol. This is 50
percent more alcohol than you will
find in a beer Wine has a much
higher alcohol content, about 10 to
14 percent. But wine is usually
served in smaller glasses than beer.
Most wine coolers come in 12-ounce
bottles. A person who drinks two
wine coolers gets more alcohol than
a person who has two glasses of
wine.
Wine coolers can be dangerous
because they don’t taste like alco-
hol. They taste more like fruit
punch. You could drink two or
three without realizing that you are
getting very drunk. Kids who get
drunk could find themselves in a
pack of trouble. - MARY J.
(GEORGETOWN)
DEAR MARY: When I was in
high school they called it “pink
lightning.” The more things change
the more they remain the same.
Thanks for the wake-up call. A
letter from you can do a lot more
good than anything I might say.
Dear Ann Landers: "Mary Jane"
and “John” recently gave me my
first grandchild. M.J. went nuts
finding the right formula. Then she
tried eve-y bottle on the market to
ge< the best one. The baby clothes
auJ toys cost a fortune. But that’s
their business and their money. My
other daughter says, “Ma, keep
catliy"
your mouth shut.”
Ann, my reason for writing is
cigarettes. M.J. and John are chain
smokers. Their beautiful little child,
with all those fancy clothes, washed
in just the right soap, bathed every
day in just the right shampoo,
lotions and powders, is put to bed
in a beautiful room with white
furniture and organdy curtains that
stink to high heaven of cigarette
smoke. And I mean stink. The child
sleeps in cigarette smoke She is fed
in cigarette smoke. She goes for a
drive in a car filled with smoke.
I get so mad my Wood boils. That
little baby's lungs will be Wack by
the time she's in junior high. I have
sent them several newspaper and
magazine articles and some of your
columns on the hazards of second-
hand smoke. They say it’s a lot of
baloney . Please, tell me what I can
do to help that baby. - GRAM IN
INDIANA
DEAR GRAM: Take your daugh-
ter’s advice. After all that has been
said and written about the dangers
of secondhand smoke, if it hasn't
made an impression, nothing you
can say will make a difference.
