Rehab News:Teen monitoring may curb alcohol use

Parents can reduce the chance of their children becoming alcoholics by monitoring their activities closely, according to research.

A study published in the American Journal of Health Behavior looked at 444 patients between the ages of 12 and 17 in Washington DC, 55.2 per cent of whom were female.

The participants were required to answer questions about the amount their parents monitored their activities and about their own level of alcohol use.

The researchers found that those children whose parents tended to keep a close eye on them were less likely to obtain or consume alcohol without their parents' knowing.

In addition, they were less likely to be in potentially harmful situations, such as spending time with teenagers who drank or going to places that their parents did not recommend.

Dr Kenneth Beck, a researcher at the University of Maryland College Park's department of public and community health, said: "Teens who report being consistently monitored by their parents were significantly less likely to be involved in a variety of alcohol-risk activities.

"This suggests that monitoring may help to reduce risk when adolescents are initially exposed to alcohol or while they are still using it infrequently and experimenting with it."
