should teens be able to drink ?

[ryepie99]

If teens could legally drink, I think that it would reduce the amount of binge drinking that they do now, and become a little bit more responsible with alcohol.  The law against it really doesn't stop it from happening, it just makes it a little bit harder, so when they are in a position where they can drink, they feel like they need to have as much as possible, because they don't know when the next time would be.

Yeah; sometimes the parent's aren't any wiser than the kids...

I think the legal drinking age should be lowered to 18.  If you're old enough to fight in a war, you're old enough to drink IMO.

I think age 21 is fine. I would rather see them raise the age for military service.

Excellent idea.
