A Stressed Out High School Student Displays Numerous Alcohol-Related Issues, Gets Discharged From School, And Has To See The School Psychologist
Stephen was a fifteen year old high school sophomore who was exhibiting several alcohol-related issues at school. Therefore, the principal informed him that he had to see Miss Pender, the school psychologist, before he would be allowed to return to class.
Later that day when Stephen went home after school, he had to explain his school situation to his parents. His parents were "fairly traditional" and explained to Stephen that getting thrown out of school was not an acceptable educational plan of action. They informed Stephen that failing to graduate from high school would probably be like a lead weight around his feet that could quite possibly impair his educational attainment for the rest of his adult life. Furthermore, Stephen's Mother and Father were extremely saddened that he was drinking in the first place and drinking with his peers in the second.
It was obvious that his parents were 100% in agreement with Stephen's principal and told Stephen that he needs to see Miss Pender, the school therapist. After his talk with his Mother and Father, Stephen at last agreed to see Miss Pender the next day. So Stephen called the school and made an appointment to see Miss Pender the next morning.
When Stephen went to see Miss Pender, she without pause analyzed all of the alcohol-related issues Stephen had gotten into and asked him if he comprehended why his recent alcohol-related behavior made the school administrators uneasy.
Quite frankly, Stephen questioned why the principal suggested that he see a school therapist. As he expressed to Miss Pender, why should he see a professional therapist about his drinking situation? Because virtually all of his peers drink as much if not more than he does, fundamentally, drinking is no big thing. Stated another way, if nearly everybody is drinking, why is this such a major concern?
In a word, Stephen's involvement with teenage alcohol abuse was starting to thwart his ability to conduct himself like a responsible young man. As pronounced by Miss Pender, "Just because most of your friends drink wine, hard liquor, wine coolers, or beer does not mean that it is the right thing to do for you."
Luckily, Miss Pender was extremely well equipped for her scheduled time with Stephen. She showed him research studies and reports she had underlined that outlined various drinking facts and statistics that applied to most people in general. Then she showed Stephen quite a bit of figures and reports that applied mainly to teens.
After Miss Pender conveyed the aforesaid teenage alcohol and teen alcohol abuse facts and statistics, it was clear that what Miss Pender taught Stephen was a real source of revelation for him. Why? Because for the first time in his young life, someone not only took the time to articulate the long term and the short term outcomes of alcohol addiction and alcohol abuse, but she also made the effort to validate what she was saying with alcohol abuse and alcohol dependency facts and statistics that related to people in general, and particularly to teens.
Definitely, it was almost as if a light went on and Stephen instantaneously comprehended why he should not be engaging in hazardous and excessive drinking with or without his pals anymore. Stephen thanked Miss Pender for her concern and for the information she discussed and then accepted her reinstatement into class.
