A mother released photos of her teenage son in hospital after he collapsed following a vodka binge session in school.
Chase Owen, 13, had been drinking alcohol brought into school by other pupils in a bid to fit in with them.
But his mother Jo said the teenager almost died from alcohol poisoning after she found him slumped in their garden in Taunton, Somerset.
Jo says hospital tests found his blood alcohol level was 2.5 times the legal top limit for driving.
Shop worker Jo took pictures of her son in an Exeter hospital in a bid to warn others about the dangers of peer pressure.
She said: ‘After being a parent for almost 13 years this is the worst 24 hours I have ever faced.
‘Finding Chase collapsed in my front garden yesterday after school I instantly knew something was not right.
‘According to him he was just tired! Having got him in the house his condition deteriorated rapidly.
Unable to string a sentence together, slurring his words and very soon vomiting profusely. Having to see my son like that was awful.
