Yes, alcohol can affect teenagers more than adults for several reasons. Teenagers' brains are still developing, making them more susceptible to the negative effects of alcohol on cognitive functions, memory, and decision-making skills. Additionally, teenagers have lower tolerance levels and may underestimate the risks associated with alcohol consumption.
