Have a child in college? Chances are he or she has seen some drinking activity while there. Binge drinking and other types of entertainment seem to be pretty prevalent these days. Does it affect your child's education, though?

A recent showed that activities like binge drinking may cause bad decision making among those who partake in it, when compared to peers who don't engage in the activity.

In addition to that main finding, the study also said that the earlier a person begins to binge drink, the stronger the tie to poor decision-making skills. College (and those years) should be filled with the enjoyment of getting older and moving into an independent frame of mind. That is, unless you drink heavily.
