Quote, Paraphrase, Citation #4

Quote; From a very young age, kids see advertising messages showing beautiful people enjoying life — and alcohol. And because many parents and other adults use alcohol socially — having beer or wine with dinner, for example — alcohol seems harmless to many teens.

Paraphrase; Kids see alcohol commercials at young ages and there is never anything negative with the advertisement. This influences kids to go and buy alcoholic beverages with the fantasy that their life will be just as good as the persons life in the advertisement. Alcohol is also consumed in the average house hold. Kids also may pick up the habit from home.
