| In Poland you may drink legally being 18 years of age. It's the best legal drinking age IMO, although I have to admit that I got drunk for the 1st time when I was 15. 21 is way too late IMO whereas legalizing drunking under the age of 18 seems demoralizing for the youths. They still do it but IMO legalization would make them doing it much more commonly. |

18... if you can get married, die for your country, vote in elections and live on your own i think you should be able to drink.
if you got married at 18 you couldn't even sip champagne at your own wedding in the us. how dumb is that? |

:crazy: i think the age should be 16, i mean most kids get drunk at that age any way i dont believe making it legal will result in floods of sixteen year olds going to the off licence to get alcohol. Those who dont drink at 16, wont go out and drink and it wont really affect those that do, they will continue as normal.
I really dont think it'll result in some kind of yob culture.

many european countries dont have drinking-ages / dont enforce them. as countres such as france / italy drink wine with most meals.
thing is though, a lot of the youth dont drink at all!
i was in Italy in '99 and all the young ppl were much more concerned with their mopeds and wee ty cars :) |

| In the US it's 21 - I think it should be like cigeretts where you can smoke but can't buy them until your 18 - you shold be able to drink once you're 18 but you shouldn't be able to buy it until your 21 - in the US if 18 year old's were allowed to buy alchohol there would be A LOT more drunk driving.. |
