Letter from the teen's mom:
“Many people do not hesitate to buy their children CHILDREN'S CHAMPAGNE soda, in a package copying“adult”champagne. BUT WHY??! What will be the results in the future?
Previously, soda in champagne bottles stood in the section of soda and juices, although the packaging and serving itself were very indignant.
Yesterday I saw this "children's drink" in the section where they sell alcoholic poison. The question is WHAT FOR? AND WHOM IS IT PROFITABLE?
In supermarkets, the MERCHENDIZER is responsible for displaying the goods, his duties include placing the goods in the zone where they will be sold the best. What are the goals pursued by the MERCHENDIZER by placing CHILDREN'S CHAMPAGNE in the zone of alcoholic poisons.
Anyone who knows how any supermarket works understands that goods in the checkout area (chocolates and other children's sweets) are located at the level of the child's eyes in order to increase sales of these goods. While the adults are queuing up, the child looks after what would be the parents. If these "kinder" or "chupa-chups" did not catch his eye, then he would not want it.
The same principle applies to serving this "baby champagne".
Firstly: The very shape of the bottle, the cork, labels and inscriptions, copy "adult" bottles for a "festive ritual". The setting is being formed: "The holiday should be with alcohol on the table."
Promotional video:
Secondly: “Teaching children the ritual of drinking alcohol is preparation for the transition to“real”,“adult”alcoholic liquids.
PARENTS PLEASE THINK WHAT WILL SUCH PURCHASES LEAD TO?"

Let's add a few words on our behalf.
Yesterday we specially looked into one of the "markets" of a well-known retail chain and already at the most passable place (and NOT in the alcohol department !!!) we saw a whole rack "dedicated" to the brand "champagne": at the bottom "adult", at the top - "children's "(Ie lemonade in the form of a bottle of alcoholic solution" champagne ").
And the most interesting thing: for the price "baby" is more expensive than "adult" (!!!).
And one more fact: "adult" is non-alcoholic !!!
- What do you think high school students will buy (after all, they consider themselves adults already): expensive lemonade or cheap "adult"?
- And what will parents buy for their teenage children to “celebrate” the New Year? After all, they seem to be children, but they seem to have matured a little …
Looking at this rack, we saw with our own eyes the “Shichko ladder” or the ladder of degradation through which each person (starting from the youngest age) is lowered into the swamp of self-poisoning and alcoholization: “childish” - “zero” - “adult” - etc. …
You know, there is such an experience with a frog: if a frog is immersed in boiling water, then it will immediately jump out of there (yes, it will burn itself, but it will remain alive), and if it is lowered into a saucepan with warm water, and the pan is slowly heated, then the frog will just boil.
This is what they do with people - just like with frogs!
Therefore, our dear parents, do not be frogs, be people - defend your Sobriety and your children!
And to do this, filter ANY information with which you come into contact or contact (may come into contact with) your child.
For competent filtering of information, each of us has two tools and they are always with us, only we forget about them. These are question tools.
Always and everywhere, wherever you are, ask two questions (teach this to your children):
- What does this teach? (Good or Bad)
- What do they want from us? (Who benefits from this?)
And the more often these two questions are asked, the better your "filters" will work and the more morally you and your children will be. This is how any filters work or, for example, sieves for sifting flour: the more often the wires from which the sieve is made, the less debris remains in the flour.
The more often we ask ourselves these questions, the less garbage in our head.
And the right questions can only be asked by living a sober life.
