From the Paper:

"It definitely looks like harder fines for drunk teenagers, or probably for their parents, would be the only solution for this social problem. In this way, parents of teenagers, teenagers themselves and supermarkets have a fair chance to get what they want. In conclusion it is up to the parents to look after their children and to educate them to become more aware of the consequences of exaggerated alcohol consumption and they are the ones that should be called to account for the alcohol excesses of their children."
