“Ava blacks out a lot,” says Maria. She claims that Ava, who currently has upward of 40,000 followers on Instagram, parties too much and sometimes puts herself in dangerous situations for attention.

“I love alcohol,” says Ava, who isn’t yet 21. “I can down an entire bottle and – I mean, I might die, but fingers crossed. So far I’ve been invincible.”

When Dr. Phil shares that an estimated 97,000 women age 18-24 report alcohol-related sexual assault or date rape a year, how does Ava respond?
