Why is it the law to be 18 to drink in great britain?!
I don't understand why there is an age limit on alcohol you should be able to drink so long as your parents alow you to!. so why have an age limit can anybody tell me!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
How old are you!? Because I used to think like that until I got to about 18 !. !. !. and then I realised why!.
Maybe you're just more mature than most people, but generally younger people are less responsible with it, and alcohol is a powerful drug!.
also the law is 18 to buy alcohol, not drink it!. In UK law you can drink from the age of 5 in your own home with your parent's consent!.

I believe that you can drink in Britain with parents if you are under 18!. The age restriction is more of a guideline, and prevents minors from purchasing alcohol themselves!.
Unlike the United States where drinking alcohol, in any capacity, under the age of 21 is completely illegal!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Your body is still developing!. Excessive drinking will damage your body much more when younger!. You can legally drink when 16+ if you're with a 'responsible' adult and having a meal!.
It kinda makes sense and isn't as draconian as many other countries - ie USA, 21!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

its all about the control!.its like when your parents used to ground u but didnt give u a reason why!.its because they feel the need to be dominant and in control so they do whatever it takes to make themselves feel that way!.government is a corrupt system and with nobody standing up to it it will only get worseWww@FoodAQ@Com
Health reasons - alcohol does much more damage to your body when you are younger!. also, to decrease the anti-social behaviour in Britain and try and control the county a bit!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
It's 18 to buy alcohol!. You can drink at home, with your parents, when you're under 18!. There is no way for shops to know when your parents have given you permission, is there!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

It should be 21 years old because you people are real holigans and need to shot!. You bunch of unruly youths stabbing each other every day!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
