What do you think of underage drinking?!
im 16 and i drink pretty much every weekend
im totally open about this with my mum and i think not only has this helped us have a really good relationship and she trusts me but i also trust myself and im carefull and understand alchohol aswell
i know its illegal
im in australia and we can drink at 18
id just like to know other peoples opinions on underage drinking because i dont see why peoples parents would be so against it
i also think that the kids of people who dont let their kids go to partys and drink end up having more problems with alchohol than any one else
i know this from experienceWww@FoodAQ@Com

I have a 16 year old nephew (I'm 24) and I helped raise him because he doesn't have a dad around!. He smokes and drinks, but he's a good kid, and I'm not going to beat him up over it (because I do the same thing and did at his age too)!. I just want him to use good judgment and not go overboard!. But if we're at my place watching nascar it's okay with me if he has a cigarette and a beer !.!.!. 16 isn't really a kid anymore!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I drink and I'm 19!. I know my limits and stick to em!
Drinking under aged depends on the person! If it's someone that can be trusted that will not abuse it than I think it's fine! If someone is drinking get drunk and go coocoobananas than that's a totally different thing and they shouldn't be allowed! Most kids like to go coocoobananas now a days!. It's sad really!. =[Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think its fine!.Teenagers are gonna go out and drink weather their parents know about it or not!.And I do see your point about the kids who don't get to experience parties or drinking probably could end up binge drinking later on!. As long as your not drinking every night and you realize when it's too much or your doing it too often then whats the problem!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
I am in America, and I definitely think the drinking age is a couple years too high!. Then again, I'm 20 and might just be antsy to drink legally ;)
But 16!?! Sorry, but I don't think the drinking age for any country should ever be THAT low!. You're just a kid! You're still growing physically and mentally, and shouldn't have the interference of alcohol and partying in your life, at least not yet!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hi Carrie, I just turned 18 and understand why you'd want too drink, cuz I was just curious and had my first cigarro lol!. Here in the U!.S!. it's a flippin 21 years old till you drink!. Anyway if you want my opinion here it goes!.
Your breaking the law by drinking underage and your mum knows it which isnt very good, but in my opinion, I think that as long as people drink safely (no heavy drinking) and not getting drunk is ok!. Thats my two cents!. Maybe you should just wait until your 18 to play it safe with the law!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I'm 16 too and started drinking when i was 15!. I'm not an alocohlic but its fun to have it with my friends and liven up a night a bit!
I don't see the big deal about it either tbh, it's just alcohol!?
My mum doesn't know i drink but she found a bottle of vodka in my room once n flipped out on me!.
But she drinks all the time, so why can't i!?
I think it's fine to drink at 16, as long as you aren't stupid about it :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

its not the age really!. it is the maturity level!. how responsible do you think you are!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
as long as you drive afterward it's ok!. This will help clean up the gene pool!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
The main reason I'm against it is because underage drinkers have this mindset that they know everything!. That their so mature, and responsible- its bull!. The only reason you don't' see why others are against it, is because you obviously have a problem!. You don't think the rules apply to you, you think you can just prance around doing whatever the hell you want, pretend like your a big girl because your holding a beer in hand, while your mommy sits back and does nothing to parent you because she'd rather be your bestest buddie!. And in regards to your last paragraph, the way of the world should be to let people drink whenever they want, do whatever they want and act however they want, regardless of rules, age or LAW, and everything will be alright!? Is that what you really believe!?!.!.!. stay in school!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
i started drinking when i was 14, i snuck it cuz i knew i'd get in ****, but when i got to about 16 then i mean when your kids like 16 its obvious that they're gunna be drinking, its just what kids do at parties and stuff, and i see nothing wrong with it, i mean if your 12 or somethin, thats a bit much, but its a part of life,
i don't think drinking ages should be lowered though, im in canada and its also 18 cuz you can't have a bunch of school kids goin to the bar during the week or anything so atleast that way most kids are out of school by 18, or close to it, so the partying is pretty much kept to the weekends, plus when people don't drink untill they're 'allowed' to they go crazy cuz its so new to them, they don't ease into it, and they dont know how to handle their booze, and how different types will effect them, im 20 now so i pretty much know how every type of alcohol is gunna effect me!.!.!.like tequila makes me crazy i only drink it when im really pissed off for some reason lol and im pregnant, and me and my guy have already decided that when our kid is like 14-15 age, if he/she wants to drink, then we're gunna let him, as long as its at home, it can have parties at our house, and then atleast we know whats goin on and we can be there if something happens, and alla that, although im sure some stuffy parents wouldnt like us being okay with kids drinking, but they're gunna do it anyways and its a hell of a lot better to know where they are and know that they're safe instead of having them go to some random place and having something happen!.
i say your fine to drink every weekend lol your 16 this is when your sposed to be having the most fun, so enjoy it, and bein legal age is way overrated, its funner if you have to sneak it sometimes lolWww@FoodAQ@Com
