Meet Dani, 15
Dani just started high school and wants to fit in with a new crowd—older kids who always seem cool, confident, and fun. They invite her to a party on Friday and say,
“You coming, right? Don’t be lame—we’re bringing drinks.”
Dani’s never really been to a party like that before. She’s nervous, but also excited to be included.
At the party, someone hands her a drink and says,
“It’s just one. You’re not a baby, right?”
Dani hesitates—but then drinks it. She ends up taking a few more. The next morning, she wakes up with a pounding headache and a blurry memory of the night.
Her friends text her: “Yo, you were wild last night 😂.”
