Reviewed by Buzz Haughton, Shields Library, University of California at DavisThis video presents some of the situations that young people may find themselves in when attending parties. Lack of adult supervision, or adults who don’t care about whether they serve alcohol to underage persons, may result in intoxication, driving while drunk and the other serious consequences that often ensue. The video is accompanied by a check list outlining safety guidelines for young persons in party situations, as well as a list of test questions employing essay answers to allow young people to navigate the sometimes perilous waters when junior high, senior high and college-age persons choose to party.
