NBC News (11/26, Carroll) reports on its website a study suggests “binge drinking rates are on the rise for nearly all groups of Americans.” The research showed “from 2006 to 2018, the rate of binge drinking in women with children rose at about the same pace as women without children.” Another findings is that “binge drinking among men 18 to 29 who had children actually declined during the 12-year period, the only group to do so,” dropping below the rate of binge drinking reported in childless women in that age bracket. The findingswere published in PLOS Medicine.
