Did you see the season finale of 'E.R.' last week? Binge drinking and drinking games were a theme in that episode. Why? In real life, the 17 year old neice of executive producer, John Wells, died of alcohol poisoning. Another good conversation starter for the teens in your life. Talk early, talk often.

It's great that a huge show like ER would shine a spotlight on this issue. Great way to open a conversation with kids!
Great story and I think people like to hear how things are based on real events. It is good to see Hollywood doing some drug and alcohol prevention eduaction/ awareness, but sad that it is usally re-active instead of pro-active.
