Parents are facilitating young people “misusing alcohol . . . by providing product and events”, the Minister of State for Primary Care has said.
Róisín Shortall, speaking at a conference on alcohol and crime yesterday, said parents needed “to consider their own ambivalent attitude” to their children’s drinking.
The conference heard almost 60 per cent of people had been intimidated, frightened or physically assaulted as a result of someone else’s drinking.
