Adolescents feel insecure and they may experiment with alcohol so that they are accepted and so that they please their friends. It is important for a father to be close to his child because he can help in such moments. Three solutions for adolescent alcoholism are for the fathers to improve their relationship with their children by improving communication, being friends, and doing activities with their children.
The first point is for fathers and sons to improve their communication. Communication between a father and his child is very important, because children feel secure when they talk to their parents. The father has the obligation to talk to his children about the dangers that alcohol presents for them. Also, the father should always make time to listen and talk with his child, but he has to do it with love. For example the fathers are too busy working and they do not have time to talk with his children. They come home late and their children are sleeping. During the day they don’t have anyone to talk to about their problems. They look for someone else to talk to. When fathers discover that their children drink alcohol and they have bad friends. The father decides to talk to them but it is too late to talk because his children don’t listen to him.
The second solution for adolescent alcoholism is to be a friend. The father is the best friend of his child. It is important that a father maintains a solid relationship, mutual trust, and safety with his son. An adolescent needs his father to dedicate time to him and help him to understand the changes in his body and personality. Adolescents need a friend who they can talk with about what they are feeling and about the changes in their life. 28% young adolescents who commit suicide do so because of alcohol. But also, it is important that a father is an example to his child. The adolescent looks to his father as a best friend. The father should always tell his child that he loves him, that he is important in the family, and that he wants his son’s happiness.
The final point is for fathers to do activities with their sons. It is very important for a father to dedicate time to his children to do activities together. The father can go with his child on a long walk in the mountains, go on a bicycle ride, go out of the house to have dinner with food he likes, or to watch a movie. For example a father can learn to play soccer and spend a lot of time together practicing with his child. His child likes to be with father in all time.
