An Unpredictable High School Student Manifests Quite A Few Alcohol-Related Problems, Gets Expelled From School, And Has To See The School Psychologist
Stephen was a fifteen year old high school sophomore who was displaying quite a few alcohol-related difficulties at school. Consequently, the principal informed him that he had to see Miss Pender, the school psychologist, before he would be allowed to come back to school.
Later that day when Stephen went home after school, he had to explain his school expulsion to his parents. His parents were "relatively old-style" and told Stephen that getting kicked out of school was not a satisfactory educational plan of action. They explained to Stephen that failing to graduate from high school would most probably be like a lead weight around his legs that could conceivably inhibit his educational aspirations for the remainder of his life. Moreover, Stephen's Mom and Dad were extremely saddened that he was drinking in the first place and drinking with his peers in the second.
It was apparent that his parents were out and out in full accord with Stephen's principal and explained to Stephen that he had to see Miss Pender, the school psychologist. After his chat with his Mother and Father, Stephen at long last agreed to see Miss Pender the next day. So Stephen called the school and scheduled an appointment to see Miss Pender the next afternoon after school.
When Stephen went to see Miss Pender, she promptly examined all of the alcohol-related issues Stephen had gotten into and asked him if he knew why his recent alcohol-related actions made the school administrators uneasy.
Quite honestly, Stephen was not sure why the principal told him he had to see a school psychologist. As he stated to Miss Pender, why should he see a professional psychologist about his drinking behavior? In view of the fact that virtually all of his classmates drink the same amount that he does, in effect, drinking is no big thing. Stated differently, if just about everyone is drinking, why is this such a big deal?
In a word, Stephen's involvement with teenage alcohol abuse was starting to thwart his ability to act like an accountable young man. As articulated by Miss Pender, "Just because most of your pals drink beer, hard liquor, wine coolers, or wine does not mean that it's the right thing to do for you."
Luckily, Miss Pender was well equipped for her meeting with Stephen. She showed him reports and research studies she had underlined that outlined various drinking statistics and facts that applied to most people in general. Then she showed Stephen quite a bit of figures and reports that applied especially to teens.
After Miss Pender listed the aforesaid teenage alcohol and teen alcohol abuse facts and statistics, it was evident that what Miss Pender taught Stephen was a real jolt to him. Why? Because for the first time in his young life, someone not only made the effort to give an explanation of the long term and the short term outcomes of alcohol addiction and alcohol abuse, but she also made the effort to authenticate what she was saying with alcohol abuse and alcohol dependency facts and statistics that related to everybody in general, and especially to teens.
As a matter of fact, it was almost as if a light went on and Stephen immediately comprehended why he should not be engaging in abusive and hazardous drinking with or without his classmates anymore. Stephen thanked Miss Pender for her concern and for the information she presented and then accepted her reinstatement into school.
