Another day at the shelter - Alcoholic beverage
Adolescence is an essential stage of life. I did a lot of bullshit, smoked cigarettes, drank beer, wine, martini and everything I had. When I spoke at home with the smell of alcohol, my father was talking to me. It's what I do today, my children are still children, but I know this phase will come.
In the shelter there are also teenagers, this Saturday, two teenagers, who recently got a job, and received the first salary, went to the house of a friend, a neighbor. It was barbecue, the house full and the girl's mother did not pay much attention to what they were doing. With cash in their pockets, they went to the market and bought a bottle of Catuaba, which is an imitation of poor quality wine. It has funk songs and there you have it.
When a teenager starts working, he usually gets his first salary. From the second salary the teenager gets 20% and the other 80% is placed in an account that he or she will only have access to at 18. All legalized and according to the Childhood and Youth Court, so the young man at the age of 18 already has a money saved to start life.
Anyway, they drank the whole bottle and went to sleep in her friend's room, on Saturday night the girl's mother went to tell her what had happened, the girls slept there and they went back Sunday morning.
Today, Monday the shelter manager, already aware of what happened, did not give the least attention to them, they left to work as if nothing had happened.
I've been waiting for a more educational attitude, "I know you're a teenager but I was worried about you ..." Anyway, a comment from someone who cares about them. But there was no comment.
Tomorrow I will play this role, they need guidance.
