Teenagers might also put vodka into water bottles, so adults don't know they're drinking.
Alcohol can cause blood sugar to drop dangerously in kids, even if they don't seem intoxicated or it can make them lethargic or unresponsive.
As a reminder, empty beer cans and glasses and put unused alcohol out of reach in your house.
Dr. Osterhoudt says it's also helpful to have a point person keep watch on any kids who might be around, acting as a lifeguard.
