I agree. Giving people carte blanche to drink all they want just because they reach a certain age without any instruction is like letting them drive a car at a certain age without any instruction. In both cases, you greatly increase the chances of them killing themselves.
Parents cannot teach their children how to drink socially and in moderation if he or she becomes of age after leaving home or going to college. The laws, in fact, make it illegal to do so while they're still home.
We might as well ban drivers ed too and just hope for the best. "Here are the keys, son, try not to hit a tree."
