Answer
A
watching commercials that suggest that drinking often happens in fun atmospheres
B
being offered alcohol by friends at parties
C
having a partner who got an STD while drunk
D
having a family history of alcoholism, alcohol abuse, or other addiction
E
seeing one or both parents drunk
Explanation
Commercials that portray drinking as fun can make alcohol use seem normal or appealing, and being offered alcohol by friends creates direct peer pressure. A family history of addiction can increase a teen’s vulnerability, while seeing a parent drunk can model or normalize drinking. A partner getting an STD while drunk is a harmful consequence of alcohol use, but it is not itself a typical risk factor that increases a teen’s likelihood of using alcohol.
