Quoting from the U.S. Surgeon General’s 2007 Call to Action to Prevent and Reduce Underage Drinking, “In graduating from elementary to middle school, from middle school to high school, and from high school to college or the workplace, adolescents move in and out of different social contexts and peer groups, which exposes them to new stressors. These transitions lead to increased responsibilities and academic expectations, which are also potential sources of stress. This is important because research shows a link between stress and alcohol consumption [among adolescents].”
The physical effects of puberty create dramatic changes in the sexual andsocial experience of maturing adolescents that require significant psychological and social adaptation. Together with hormonally induced moodand behavior changes, these sexual and social maturation stressors maycontribute to increased consumption of alcohol during the adolescentperiod (Tschann et al. 1994). In graduating from elementary to middleschool, from middle school to high school, and from high school to collegeor the workplace, adolescents move in and out of different social contextsand peer groups, which exposes them to new stressors. These transitionslead to increased responsibilities and academic expectations, which arealso potential sources of stress. This is important because research showsa link between stress and alcohol consumption.

It seems to hit all the ‘good’ points regarding the pressures to fit in, succeed, be popular.
