Why is the legal drinking age 18 in the uk
What Should the Legal Drinking Age Be? | 16 | 18 | 21 | British Vs. American Drinking Age | US | UK
everyone was just gonna do it anyway
people are not increasing it to 21
they'll be a lot more underage drinking
going on eating okay just leave it as it
is I don't think that the legal drinking
age should increase the 21 because I
think a lot of people nowadays a
drinking underage anyway so I think
increasing it to 21 they'll be a lot
more underage drinking going on if you
change if you keep this up and so it's
just never gonna be enough for people
never gonna change and that's another
doing to Frank I do not believe it
should be increased to 21 because at the
end of the day anyone everyone's just
gonna do it anyway like I've done it
like I've drunk and I'm 16 that sounds
bad but like I think it should be
lowered obviously like the legal age
should have sex is 16 you can get
married with parent consent at 16 I
think it should be you can drink with
parents consent
stay 21 because well people are dumb and
when they drink they drink to get drunk
so when they're drunk they're not in
their right minds a lot of times they'll
drive home which means a lot more
accidents can happen and they'll
probably happen a lot more if younger
people are the ones doing the drinking
if you can avoid at 18 and you can join
the military and do all these things I
do think that you should be able to make
your own choices about drinking I think
it's five merit is twenty one's a bit
over the top because I 18 you can easily
make your own decisions 21 is just too
late to be fair on to a teens they still
drink that we all know so I don't really
think it matters I don't think that the
drinking age should be increased I just
think there should be more education
around drinking and there should be less
of a stigma around it and it's we talked
about in schools and how drinking is not
necessarily a bad thing when done in
moderation I think
21 because most teams are responsible
and also
US citizens are not very responsible
eighteens a good year you know what
you're doing you can make your own
decisions I think that's more important
anyway rules are kind of subjective like
whenever you make rules people always do
the reverse of it or they try and break
it so you're making it 21 people even
younger than 18 are gonna start drinking
and I don't think that's gonna help in
any way just leave it as it is we should
change the drinking age even good people
drink anyway and that's not good because
if you have under 20 aren't allowed to
drink drinking then it won't be
regulated won't be safe it won't be
around someone responsible so it would
be very very hazardous could result in a
lot of drunk teenagers and a lot more
people in a in a dude probably change
the drinking age not say 18 but probably
like 19 or 20 because a lot of those
people are like so high school at 18 and
there wouldn't be good to be drinking
and getting drunk in high school should
be raised to 21 because not only a
people typically more mature at that age
think more clearly also scientists and
researchers have shown that when the age
gets raised for drinking the under a
theme of underage drinkers also
decreases I think it should stay at 21
because 18 years just becoming an adult
and every teenager becoming an adult
it's gonna want to drink and drink and
drink so if they have a couple more
years of adulthood and at 21 they could
handle it more seriously 18 is a good
age because when you're 18 you come an
adult and I think then you should be
responsible enough to start drinking
should not be reduced because alcohol is
not good for you and if you go out on
the road do anything in regards to it
and it doesn't come out with a positive
effect of course it does make you happy
but for a short span of time so no I
don't think the US should
me or my friends I know and even though
it's not good but they're fun ways of
getting alcohol if they change it to 21
I feel like they'll still do this and
they could find something that not safe
but keeping at 18 and then they can just
got by reliable 18 that's not okay
because I'm 16 right now and there's not
really much it is between 16 and 18
there's not that much harm and drinking
at this age and underage drinking is
just so common anyways so it's happen I
want to increase it to 21 because I
think by the end of around 15 16 you're
already in that mindset of drinking it's
just a natural thing where you have the
the urge to go up high and drink enjoy
yourself so I think if they increased it
even higher then it would just encourage
people to be more Italian and go against
the idea of the law also a lot of people
go to university or 18 and the
university culture is kind of based
around drinking games and stuff so do i
power a lot of memories at 18 you are
considered an adult and you're fair for
capable of making your own choices
and I think just because there are 18
year olds out there you are
drink-driving and just being stupid in
general that doesn't mean we should
penalize the other 18 year olds who
drink sensibly and don't do stupid
things if we raise the legal drinking
age to 21 I think it would cause the
harm than good
