Drinking

How to fight drinking...
Well, in my opinion, there really is no way to fight it. It is clearly their choice of what they want to do with their bodies. I've learned that from experience. And not that I'm all for it but you really have to think about it. Most teenagers, whether its a law or not, are drinking.
As for lowering the drinking age, I think its a sight for them. They will start thinking that if they act a certain way that we will just give them what they want. They will act worse and they will get in more trouble because to them, it looks like adults are giving up. So no I don't really think its worth it.
Then again, there are some that really and truly get offended. They think that they are old enough and responsible enough. Some are and some aren't. I do however, believe that some adults do neglect to see that some teenagers can actually be mature and responsible. But that does not mean they should get to go off and get special privileges.
Of course, then there are some that will through the famous line at you. The, "But I'm not a little kid anymore!" or, "Its my body not yours! I can do whatever I want with it!" And sure, that may be true but in my own opinion, I don't think they are ready. And like I just heard around the room. "They do it anyway, they'll just get in less trouble." That's true too.
But if it were up to me, I'm not sure what I would chose if I had to chose. Because, either way, they are going to drink, and either way, there's a down side. The up side of not lowering it, less 18 year old adult/minors drinking. The down side...More 18 year old adult/minors will either try to rebel or break the law. The up side to lowering it...Maybe they will take it as a privilege and try not to drink so recklessly. They might try and be sophisticated and mature about it. While the down side may be...They may think that they will always get their way. They may not take it so maturely...And they may just drink like idiots.
And as for the sex...They do it anyway. Again, that does NOT MEAN I think they should bend to their will but...Open your eyes...Its going on RIGHT NOW at this very minute. And it's their bodies and their fault when they bring a child into this world. And hey, sometimes it changes people for the better. It all has to do with common sense. If you have enough common sense to save yourself, then that is wonderful...If not...Its your own choice.
That's really all I have to say.
