Right now teen alcohol consumption is shockingly high. Statistics show more than a quarter of alcohol consumed in the US is drunk by kids under 20.

That's why students at Winnebago Middle School got a taste of reality from an emergency room nurse about the impact of underage drinking and illegal drug use.

Linda Dutil wants to make sure students know about the consequences that's why she did an intense demonstration of the emergency medical procedure used on teens when they have alcohol poisoning or overdose on drugs.
