DOTW: Drinks

Hello fellow KAKPians!
Here is an all new topic for us to discuss and debate upon for this week.

As we can see, in almost all tv shows and movies, when one is in frustration, they turn to the bottle and drink their sorrows away. In these fictional lives, it shows that drinking is the one way to get away from stress and tension.
Now, here are the questions:

1. Is it right for these telemedia people to encourage onscreen drinking knowing that it can have an effect ofn the youth? Why or why not?
2. In your opinion, is drinking the right thing to do? why or why not?
3. Do you think that it is ok to drink occationally and in moderation? why or why not?
4. Do you feel that the reason we people now days start drinking is due to what we see on tv and peer pressure? is it right?
5. Do you feel that onscreen drinking should be banned? reason for your answer?
6. If you think through a parent's point of view, will you allow your child (18y/o +) to drink? How would you feel if you find out that your son/daughter drinks? What would you say to them?
7. Do you think that it is socially right to drink on occation when out with friends or in a party?

These are the questions to be answered and debated on. Feel free to post your own questions too!

Have fun everyone! And remember, lets keep this clean!

Cheers,
IF Devt. Team

1. Is it right for these telemedia people to encourage onscreen drinking knowing that it can have an effect ofn the youth? Why or why not?

yes, they do in a sense engourage younng people to drink because they are curious and want to try how it is.
2. In your opinion, is drinking the right thing to do? why or why not?

no its not because by drinking the problem is not going to get solved until you solve it.

3. Do you think that it is ok to drink occationally and in moderation? why or why not?

yes some time is ok but too much is like suicide.

4. Do you feel that the reason we people now days start drinking is due to what we see on tv and peer pressure? is it right?

yes peer pressure is a big reason alot of people do it cause they think its cool and makes them fit in.

5. Do you feel that onscreen drinking should be banned? reason for your answer?

yes because there are alot of little kids like 5 to 7 year old watching the tv and they get the wrong ideas.

6. If you think through a parent's point of view, will you allow your child (18y/o +) to drink? How would you feel if you find out that your son/daughter drinks? What would you say to them?

18 is a big number i think you should give them some freedom other wise the kids will rebell and try to go against and start drinking anyways. but you should not give them tooooo much freedom so that they can take advantage of you.

7. Do you think that it is socially right to drink on occation when out with friends or in a party?

i think its just stupid we have parties without drinks but we still have fun it depend on the person too i would never drink in my life cause i consider it sucide.

now heres a topic i have some expertise in LOL 😆 😆

1. Is it right for these telemedia people to encourage onscreen drinking knowing that it can have an effect ofn the youth? Why or why not?
I think its fine... parents should take the intiative to talk to their kids about drinking. I mean this show is trying to show some reality and its a fact that some people do depend on alcohol to get them thru rough times... so yea they do have a right to show this.
2. In your opinion, is drinking the right thing to do? why or why not?
It depends... i mean everyone has a couple drinks at a wedding, or festival or any good event... but for someone to sit at home drinking away their troubles... thats WRONG, in fact then they need help.
3. Do you think that it is ok to drink occasionally and in moderation? why or why not?
Yes occasionally is fine but once u feel like u NEED to have it... and u cant go a night without drinking down a few shots of whiskey or rum... then u know ur an alcoholic! and thats damn shame...
4. Do you feel that the reason we people now days start drinking is due to what we see on tv and peer pressure? is it right?
People do start drinking at young ages because its the "cool" thing to do or that "everyone else is doing it"... and i think that is really bad for the kid... their no reason why a 12-17 year old should even THINk about consuming alcohol... once ur old and mature and can take responsibility i dont think drinking is wrong at all... but drinking has become a part of the norms... at every social gathering alcohol is served, its practically encouraged for u to drink it!...
5. Do you feel that onscreen drinking should be banned? reason for your answer?
I dont think actors drinking have that big of an impact i think that it is really more about how ur raised... how u are parented... and believe it or not genetics also plays a role in it.
6. If you think through a parent's point of view, will you allow your child (18y/o +) to drink? How would you feel if you find out that your son/daughter drinks? What would you say to them?
I would of course allow them, but never let them get out of hand with it... and if they do decide to drink id make sure they know there limit..for the first time id ask them to drink in front of me so i know wat their reaction to it will be and how they will act, then decide if it is safe for them to go out in public like this. If i found out that they lied to me and said they didn't drink when they did then i would get upset, i dont know exactly wat i would say (not a parent yet!)...but they would be punished.
7. Do you think that it is socially right to drink on occation when out with friends or in a party?
Yes i do think its right to drink socially, i dont see anything wrong with that at all. (besides some crazy people who ruin all events by causing stupid fights b/c they dont know how to control themselves when drunk) It would be a great way to just blow off some steam and have fun... i dont find that a big issue at all.

*** GOOD TOPIC YAAR!👏
