I'm only 17 and yes, i drink, but I am also responsible about it. That doesn't mean that i think that the drinking age should be lowered to 16 or anything but i think 18 is the perfect age. At this age, one is supposed to be considered an adult. When you're 18, you can vote, smoke, fight in war, get hotel rooms, buy a car, etc etc etc. If you have all of this responsibility already and you are old enough to be able to handle it, why can't you drink? It's insane in my eyes. And yes, there are going to be exceptions that go off and get slammed all the time. They're alcoholics and it's not like there aren't alcoholics that are of legal age. Right? Well that's just my underage two cents.
