Under Aged Drinking

People believe that under aged drinking should not be allowed because it becomes a bad habit. Many people think that there are bad reasons why teens should not drink but most teens and some adults think it should be allowed. Teens drink for many reasons and they think they should be allowed to drink for many reasons. Problems with drinking arrive if an accident happens while operating an automobile. Teen that drink do not always cause accidents, adult that drink to much cause accidents also.
The government should allow teenagers over the age of eighteen to purchase and consume alcohol. The government allows them to vote, go to war and die for them; they should change the laws to allow them to have alcohol. Adults think that kids under twenty one years of age should not be allowed to drink because they do not show responsibility. Adults have many reasons to believe that their child or children can not be responsible because the adult did the same things that we as kids do and they do not want use to make the same mistakes that they did. Yes this could be a good reason but not all kids do the same things as their parents did as kids.
People drink for many reasons but teenagers drink for different reasons than adults. Most kids drink to have fun and get buzzed or just to think that they are cool by drinking and sometimes acting like idiots. Most of the time youth drink at parties where people witness them having fun, they don’t just come home and have a beer to relax. Teens and adults are different, adults will have a drink after a long day at work, so they can relax, and adolescents drink so that they can have a good time. In some instances people do drink too much and do drive home which becomes extremely bad because it endangers themselves and others. Teens do have different reasons for drinking but the reasons that parents drank when they were teens use the same basic principals, then and now.
Adolescent drinking is very bad but most teens show maturity about their drinking behaviors. Lots off teens do not drive drunk they either have a friend drive or they stay where they were partying. Adults can cause accidents to because they go to bars where they usually have to drive home. But the under aged drinkers party at some ones house so they usually stay there. Yes drinking can be fun; it can bring the shy person out to be more out going or the outgoing person to be more relaxed. One problem with being the shy person can be shown that they are more reliable on alcohol to become the outgoing person.
The drinking age should be lowered to eighteen because like other people say that if a person can vote and go to war they should be allowed to have a beer. If teens are allowed to drink then the laws for drunk driving should be stricter for the people between the ages of eighteen and twenty one. The laws should stay the same for people over the age of twenty one. If teens can drink then they might become more responsible when they do leave college life and start to be in the real world. This responsibility could help people to make the right choices in order to keep their life on track.
Under aged drinking is bad to most people but it can be a good life lesson for some. Having a bad time drinking or not remembering what happened most of the night can change the way people think about drinking. It can make some one realize that they should control themselves better or they should just not drink at all anymore. People have many thoughts about drinking but we are all entitled to our opinion. The consumption of alcohol will always be a problem in our country no matter what the laws are because there will always be a drinking age and there always will be people that don’t follow the rules.
