Lowering drinking age to 18

Created by O.L. on January 25, 2014

Lowering the drinking age to 18 will make "adults" more responsible. Eighteen year olds are considered to be adults but not adult enough to drink. Their are troops that are underage and putting their lives on the line but can't drink a cold beer with his team mates. Adults or eighteen year olds can have sex , buy tobacco, enter strip clubs, go to adult jail, and register to military but yet are not consider responsible. Experts say that teens drink and act irresponsible because their treated like children. Then treat us equally not different. Just because some teens act irresponsible does not mean the rest of us need to pay the price. Alcohol is a poison so is tobacco. Why is each set on a different age? Alcohol effects on how much you drink not on the age.
