Why Do People Drink Too Much?

Sometimes, people start drinking just a little, like at parties, but then start drinking more and more. This can happen because of their genes, which are like tiny instructions inside their bodies that they got from their parents. It can also happen because of stress or who they spend time with.

What Happens When You Drink Too Much?
