I made a survey that was given to teens from various schools in Central Arizona (Phoenix and Glendale). The questions were about drinking in general. The teens answered yes or no to the questions: Is underage drinking bad? (Figure 3). Are their side effects due to underage drinking? (Figure 4). The answers “yes” or “no” were then counted and shown on a circle graph.

**Survey was made by me, and given/sent to people using Google Doc. Twenty-three teens from Phoenix Union High School and Glendale Union High School district answered my survey.
When asked is underage drinking bad, 91% of the teens said yes, 9% said no. Not all teens think that underage drinking is necessarily a bad habit. Although when teenagers were asked about their side effects due to underage drinking, 100% of them said yes, that there were side effects. All of the teens knew the side effects of underage drinking, however, not all of them thought that underage drinking was bad for them.
