 Re: Drunk at Rehearsal???

Interesting.

I have NEVER drank before a rehearsal, albeit I have other times (and I am under 21).

Certainly, the US is alone (almost) with having 21 as a drinking age. And having lived overseas in The Netherlands, I can totally understand why people want it lowered (myself included). First, I would make the age 16 and make driving at 18 or 19. Reason being, kids need to learn how to control their drinking before they learn how to drive a car. When one learns to drink responsibly before learning how to get behind the wheel, everyone is safer. In addition, the driving age being 16-18 depending on state, with drinking age at 21 precipitates underage drinking because of the thrill (for lack of a better word). I have seen so many more people who are under 21 (and drunk) try to get in a car and drive [than are over 21]. Why? Ask a psychologist, not me! That's my oppinion.

But that doesn't excuse her actions. She needs to have someone sit down with her and figure out the root of the problem. Does this happen often (drinking heavily)? Being in high school and drinking to that extent and taking the risks that she did by coming to a rehearsal and risking personal humiliation (which is something most high schoolers treasure more than most other things) is very interesting to me.
